  • ShyttyP Shytty the Poonicorn (@ShyttyP) reported

    @TheCynicalHun @mamma_mia111 Completely incorrect. Also the issue at Optus was cause by a dumb **** who opened an internet port to a testnet connection system that went to the open internet bypassing their internal VPN. "Hacker" just happened to conveniently be tapping this port at the time...

  • neonsignal Glenn McIntosh (@neonsignal) reported

    bit rich for #ausgov to force telcos to retain sensitive data yet take zero responsibility for the security implications - not to excuse #Optus, but the problem is systemic

  • TimMelbourne2 TimMelbourne (@TimMelbourne2) reported

    @hughriminton Optus wouldn't know how many of us were affected. They wont help anyone, it's an Optus circus. Let alone Vic Roads trying to get your license replaced.

  • dwightwalker Dwight Walker (@dwightwalker) reported

    so @optus will fight to not pay any compensation for 2.8M with #databreach identity compromise so they don't close down but courts may decide to close them when they declare bankruptcy

    I'm well aware of your current policy of only contacting customers if you believe they've been effected by Optus's recent privacy breach, but I find it very hard to believe that my details have not been disclosed having been a customer for so long.

    @abc730 @ClareONeilMP The Optus fkup proves that privatisation of essential services like this is an EXTREMELY bad idea. What if we were at War and some treasonous oligarch decided it was worth their while selling all our info to the enemy?

  • BennSocialist Scott Taylor (@BennSocialist) reported

    @Optus if you don’t respond to my request to know *exactly* what data you held on my account, you will no longer have a customer. I’ve received one email, which contains no specific information on what data has been compromised. Get. Busy.

  • John_Michaels1 John (@John_Michaels1) reported

    @HullKiwi @dailytelegraph The real issue is the maximum financial penalty for Optus failing to protect peoples data is far less than the cost of keeping it safe.

  • iankay19612017 Justahornyaussie (@iankay19612017) reported

    @MAUREENALLDER Yep ... my Optus network slows mine down sometimes

  • 8x8a_m M (@8x8a_m) reported

    Reports suggest Optus had an application programming interface (API) available online that did not require authorisation or authentication to access customer data. This is plain stupid!!! #OPTUS
