    @LesStonehouse @Optus There is, I think I remember correctly, a period of up to 48 hours where a new service replicates across a WAN (wide area network).

  • Granville4879 💉💉💉 Granville in FNQ 😷 (@Granville4879) reported from Cairns, State of Queensland

    @toninicho I am now, seriously, thinking of changing my carrier after years of being with Optus Problem is Telstra cost me a first full money last time I was with them and I dropped Vodaphone over their poor customer service.

    @Jeremy_Kirk Don't pay the hackers. Yes, my data is impacted in the leak. Still, Don't Pay them. Btw.. Optus called it a CyberAttack which is wrong, it is a CyberFailure! It sounds very much like Poor I.T. Security Risk Assessment & Poor I.T. Release Management.

  • initialscsw Father Jack (@initialscsw) reported

    @antfarmer Wouldn’t it be terrible if the first batch of data released by the hackers was of all Optus executives

  • Peter97467835 J (@Peter97467835) reported

    @Optus @RunnerSA18 I wanna say Optus is ****.

  • stephenTilley5 stephen Tilley (@stephenTilley5) reported

    @AntBA013 @Optus Stupid idea,instead worrying about hackers,you will be giving the government full control over your finances,they don't like what say about them,they can turn your money off with one keystroke.

    @RonniSalt @Optus I'm fascinated that every time Corporations are found out, the role of explaining it to the press is given to a woman. The trend has been there since James Hardy. What is that? Soften up the bad look?

  • Rhino734964092 Rhino7 (@Rhino734964092) reported

    @ClareONeilMP @Leah_CBR Medicare/Mygov Information is Encrypted .To access Medicare one has to Hack into their Security. As is Bank Encryption safely secured against Hackers .OPTUS breech is their problem that needs fixing . No problem.

  • ali_kyteler Alison Kyteler 🌈 (@ali_kyteler) reported

    @ClareONeilMP FFS, why was/is @Optus @kbrspace collecting *Medicare* (health) numbers? This **** can only happen because of the laws the Aust. govt does or does not make.

  • malenciagay participation award husband | 文太郎⚜️ (@malenciagay) reported

    ppl asking why the hackers who stole optus data havent been tracked down etc. yet, lmao u think cops actually do anything???? as soon as it comes to cybercrime they start going "nooo its not our job go bother someone else" law enforcement is already a joke and moreso w cybercrime

  • pitdroidtech Max (@pitdroidtech) reported

    @PJW719 @noplaceforsheep I want Optus to pay too - I want them to pay for 12m equifax for all affected customers. I want them to give everyone at least 3 months free service, just to compensate for short term change of passwords and 2fa arrangements. And a pool for compensation for any ID theft victims.

  • JustSaying8888 I-am-Medusa 😷☮️💉💉💉💉🕯🌊 (@JustSaying8888) reported

    If Optus had paid the 1.5 and in the interim followed the money trail, this massive breach would never have occurred. But gladbag wanted to give it to Daryl
