  • LastWave_ washington rosales (@LastWave_) reported

    @CunninghamDecAU Optus is the worst telecommunication provider in Australia. Some people are just plain stupid I’m guessing.

  • LanderPeterjohn Lander PeterJohn (@LanderPeterjohn) reported

    @Goldy1970 If you want to find out the truth about such an incident, ask the tea lady. The CEO and Gladys have both proved themselves to be, ahem, unreliable witnesses. Here's the question that WILL eventually be asked in a class action - How does Optus measure up to GDPR rules? (cont)

  • Donovan_Fergie Donovan Ferguson (@Donovan_Fergie) reported

    @joshgnosis I dunno who the CISO is at Optus, nor can I be bothered Googling it, but you never send your CEO to talk about tech stuff unless they can explain it to you first. If they don't know an answer, say so! The executive public relations team at @Optus are asleep at the wheel... 1/2

    The Optus thread on Breached Forums has just been removed. Have the AFP succeeded in getting it taken down, or did Optus pay the ransom? #OptusDataBreach #OptusHack

  • AwjwWoodhead Andrew "Andy" Woodhead (@AwjwWoodhead) reported

    The Optus hack sorta reminds me of the PSN Hack of 2011. I brought this up because it’s a very serious issue that’s going on nationwide at the moment

  • afterclimate Ben Abraham @ AfterClimate (@afterclimate) reported

    @UnbearableDutch Oh right. Well I’m with Amaysim and pay $30 a month for 50gigs (on Optus network ) if you’re looking to change…

  • AyalTusia Blank (@AyalTusia) reported

    @abcnews In Vic, we need the fraud to occur b4 we can change our licence number. Just stupid! Under the current circumstances, Optus and the Vic Govt should provide a letter to all Optus customers so we can get vicroads to change our licence number.

  • JohannesSchmere Johannes Little (@JohannesSchmere) reported

    @Jeremy_Kirk Why not pay the amount to protect customer data - call it a bug bounty. Or is Optus customers data not worth $1m?

  • Glennkay16 Glenn kay (@Glennkay16) reported

    @dailytelegraph Sue the crap out of Optus. They obviously don’t respect customers privacy

  • TheNRLSHADOW TheSHADOW (@TheNRLSHADOW) reported

    They want to lock up Julian Assange for Wiki leaks, yet Optus fail the customer badly and won’t pay up, exposing peoples identities is not their bottom dollar.
