    @alexislarochel7 @Asher_Wolf Leaving stuff exposed is unusually bad. *Especially* for a large company like Optus. AFAIK this is quite a bit worse than the average. If an "attacker" doesn't need to do anything other than just access publicly available stuff that's a significant failure.

    @AusGovSlave I don’t think so. Test networks don’t have identifiable data on them. My father has just had 6 unauthorised transactions from Canada and has had to cancel his card. Thanks for that @Optus.

  • LovelockEdward Edward Lovelock (@LovelockEdward) reported

    @RickWatt9 @strangerous10 @softhardworker I had thought of that but I think the damage has been done. Will Telstra seize the moment now to inflate their fees and charges as customers flee Optus?

  • Renter9955 Renter (@Renter9955) reported

    @patrickkeneally I received an email from my bank and then I realised there is some issue with Optus and googled to learn about hacking issue. No message from Optus. Sign of horrible organisational culture @Optus

  • nickbrne Nick (@nickbrne) reported

    @redruby17 @Optus I was under the impression they were bound by the privacy act as part of those contracts; and having millions of customer details that’re meant to be confidential leaked and then the radio silence? I’m not a lawyer though, don’t quote me on that

  • GBTSocScientist GailT (@GBTSocScientist) reported

    The CEO of Optus was surprising to me, but then again, not. I stupidly changed to Optus about 4 yrs ago.Had nothing but trouble! Drunk & drugged franchise staff! Hopeless net coverage etc. Changed back to Telstra few mths ago. CEO seems very young & TOTALLY out of her depth!

    Does Optus pause actually work for anyone? Everytime I try to pause devices it just tells me to hang tight but never actually ends up working! 😡

  • AngieTrianta ✨ Angie ✨ (@AngieTrianta) reported

    @SquizzSTK God, she talks ****. How the hell can the government ensure there won’t be a cyber attack and data breach on a private company in the future? The Deputy PM spoke about it. It’s the responsibility of Optus to comfort it’s customers. FFS

  • bugwannostra Mark Dickenson: fools repeating failure on repeat. (@bugwannostra) reported

    Got an email from @Optus, telling me to be vigilant. I didn't lose my identification, you morons. I'm the ******* customer. #auspol

    @hchan2070 @Optus It may not have had data on it but it may have been an unsecured way to access the internal network.
