  @archerroberts9 This is where it sucks for an interstate team. They have to do it outside their home ground. If the granny was at Optus, then freo is 75%+. Coz it's at the G they are 50%. Swans, lions, hawks 15% each.

  It's not like mainstream media dont know about ANY of this. 👇👇 In September 2017, the federal government announced a $50 million investment over seven years in the Cyber Security Cooperative Research Centre (CSCRC). The CEO was Rachael Falk. She led the independent review into the Optus and Medibank cyber breaches. She was appointed by the Minister for Home Affairs to the Expert Advisory Board for Australia’s 2023-2030 Cyber Security Strategy. In February 2025, Falk left the CSCRC to become a partner at Ashurst Risk Advisory—a return to the firm where she had worked as a lawyer in 1998. The CSCRC was not just a research centre. It was a revolving door—a place where a connected insider could build a network, then cash in.

  @ellensandell The data centres are built by Australian companies you utter imbecile. Do you have problem with data centres built by Goodman? NextDC? Used by Telstra? Optus? Vodafone? How are you such a ******* simpleton?

  @james00000001 I now think not an Optus problem as my husband received the alarm and he is on the same service as me. If I don't get anything I will contact Optus to find out why not.

  Go digital they said. What that has got us? MyGov, Telstra, Optus hacked. Stolen identities, etc. This isn't even 1% the problem. Why keep pushing something that causes many problems & stress to everyday ppl? Tracing private citizens every move is the objective.

  @nemagovau If i receive the alert on the phones i had to replace because they couldn't call one number on one network that i don't use, "000" on Voda network. Then i want those phones imei numbers reinstated on the Telstra & Optus, that i have sims for. The public/private partnership scam
