    @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).

    @LinkedInAU @ashbarty Too bad Optus aren’t as professional as her! Giving away customers private data not a good look

  • byronkaye Byron Kaye (@byronkaye) reported

    The Optus hacker apparently wants payment in cryptocurrency, which is great because it means the cops can narrow it down to four or five males aged 19-26.

  • JPMasters JPMasters (He/Him/They/Them) (@JPMasters) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @Jeremy_Kirk I think @Optus is in some deep trouble.

  • TaytDalzell Tayt Dalzell (@TaytDalzell) reported

    @Tweedlebeetle @kcarruthers @Optus Poor advice is added liability. They don’t care about your safety or the breach wouldn’t have occurred due to their negligence.

  • tomtimes5 Thomas R 🚸 (@tomtimes5) reported

    @JPMasters @Jeremy_Kirk @Optus Should be, but probably won't be. It'll all be hand waved away as "damn hackers, what ya gonna do" in the media while they get a slap on the wrist and that's only if there's any legislation covering this particular event

  • Lozza_037 Lozza (@Lozza_037) reported

    @urbanfoodfarmer @Jeremy_Kirk Pathetic. To minimise the personal risk and inconvenience required to protect yourself from their stuff-up is unthinkably poor customer service. Step 1 - dump Optus. Step 2 - tell everyone you know to do the same. This is the only language the big telcos understand

  • kelly_ques Kelly🇦🇺🇭🇺 (@kelly_ques) reported

    @BeachGirlJan @Kickasskiwi1 @Optus That's scary, and even more scary that they are getting blackmailed for over $1 million not to sell the info they got out of the system. Who the hell does this kind of ****. I kind of wonder did they really get any information,or is it just them saying they did to scare Optus.

    So over 1m people's details are out there to be bought by by anyone. They say to change your password but how can this help against identity theft? DOB and address are now useless at establishing your identity #OptusDataBreach #OptusHack @optus

  • kayleen87686977 kay - 5th Estate Reporting for Duty (@kayleen87686977) reported

    @ClareONeilMP Optus handling of this has been immature and laughable. Childish even to compare it to “data you would give facebook”. They are gaslighting and playing it down.

    @Optus @degauserry The app IS NOT WORKING.
