  Now tweeting from my lab machine again with very basic Optus 5G internet. Will have to upload video and stuff from home, but otherwise I'm kinda functional again. No idea when NBN/Telstra will restore the connection, it's been 3 days already so I assume it's very bad. Today is Sunday and tomorrow is another public holiday.

  In 2022, Optus (Australia's 2nd biggest telco) exposed 9.8 million customer records. Root cause: an old API endpoint from a legacy system, left unauthenticated, facing the public internet. No one knew it was still running.

  @Feintglow @robb_j_m Or just change providers that actually want to provide a proper service and want happy customers. Rather than Optus, Telstra etc that don't care and know people aren't smart enough to change

  Home internet is down, BUT, according to Australia's "Lightning Fast" NBN... There IS no outage... Yeahhhhhhh.... The "Not Online" indicator light says otherwise. Optus are now "confirming" there's a problem... 🙄

  @Kate3015 @Mark_Butler_MP So was the Optus Mobile Phone Network, all must have a design, this was a thought process.

  @WestCoastEagles I’m seriously thinking about not renewing my membership. I just can’t be bothered any more. I used to like footy now it’s just a chore. Add in all the bullshit songs after goals and the Optus garbage entertainment. I can’t believe I actually pay for this **** 🤮

  @TeamYouTube I have spent an hour on the link you provided but it is not helping. My third-party provider (Optus) shows active until May 2026, but my YouTube app is stuck showing an expired date from October 2025. All i want is Help to refresh my youtube account's sync with Optus.

  @eevblog If you turn on Data Roaming when in Vodafone, in areas where there is poor coverage, it will connect to an Optus tower to fill the gap. This only works for Vodafone and not Optus or Telstra.

  @eevblog @Optus customer support is absolutely awful. I've made a complaint and that went nowhere (predictably) Spent over an hour yesterday on a basic query via chat. Will be looking to switch when convenient
