Refused to escalate "Deprovisioning" of SIM cards unable to make calls to transmit data, demanding "samples" of calls to/from +1-408 by IBM and PARC from Military Classified numbers for over 10 years. Refused to comply with Data Sovereignty rules and to respect the classified nature of the "samples" they were requesting and I refused to provide till I am talking to a suitably qualified person or engineer calling from within Australia. Refused to comply with "Do not talk to computer scientists over insecure channels" rule. I then said "will not escalate till I provide samples", I explained "deprovisioned" is more than enough to escalate and samples to that end have been provided. Call put on mute, stayed silent for 5 mins then other end terminated call. AP

  @pelli_69 @Optus @Telstra Maybe try Superloop. I was with Tesltra for 20+ years, and switched to Superloop. cheaper for higher speeds and I’ve had no issues with them for a the year since I switched.

  Australia’s mobile market: 3 brands, 1 real network outside the cities. @Telstra inherited the infrastructure, kept the spectrum, and now dominates regional coverage. If the government won’t mandate roaming, we’ll never have genuine competition.

  @mynameiskiiiid @TheKouk Structural deficit? Mate, let's get this straight.Australia's structural budget issues blew out post-GFC and especially under recent big-spending governments — not from Howard paying down $96b in inherited debt while running surpluses. Howard left the budget in strong shape with low debt and a Future Fund seeded. Today's deficits (still projected around 1% of GDP with net debt heading to ~20%+) come from exploding recurrent spending: NDIS, aged care, welfare, and public sector bloat — not a lack of 'productivity policy' from the 90s/00s. Howard-era asset sales (Telstra etc.) shifted assets to private hands where they often delivered better efficiency and innovation — exactly what boosts productivity. Privatisation and microeconomic reforms in the 80s-90s drove Australia's strong productivity surge in the late 90s/early 00s. Blaming today's slump on "record low infrastructure spending" 25-30 years ago is the real stretch. Recent productivity stagnation (labour productivity near flat since ~2016-17, weakest in decades) has clear modern drivers:Services shift — healthcare, education, public admin (non-market sectors) now dominate and have abysmal productivity growth. Faster broadband, transport, and training matter — but governments have poured billions into infrastructure since then (and states still do). The constraint isn't some 1990s "under-spend"; it's getting value for money, avoiding waste, and prioritising high-return projects over recurrent blowouts. Private sector dynamism, competition, and sensible tax settings deliver productivity far more reliably than more government "facilitation" funded by structural deficits. You know what actually restricts productivity policy? Promising endless spending while ignoring incentives, efficiency, and evidence. Structural deficits today crowd out future options through higher interest and taxes — not the other way around." This keeps it punchy, factual, and directly dismantles the causal link while flipping the deficit argument.

  The insult is that Telstra is also upping my plan cost by $10 a month so they are simultaneously telling me I'm a risk, but also to go **** myself and pay it anyway.
