  @teslaownersSV @grok will this include Aldi which piggybacks the Telstra network?

  @Telstra Yes I have reset both phones multiple times over the past days trying to fix data failures, calls not going through, poor signal, messages not notifying. Why am I having to reset so often to get basic function?

  @BudgetDude if you know the org chart of Telstra you'd find that would be a terrible approch but I get what you mean. I think the approach required if to rewind the history of decision making re. "why wasn't that NPT server upgraded" (or all of them) and that ecosystem of humans get fired.

  @ArkinBarkin @Ryandally08 They hire their mates, ex Labor poles, retired bureaucrats as consultants eg NBN, NDIS, Telstra, etc costs and salaries go up while service fails.

  @merchant_s35416 @Bender_Aus Privatising telecom was the right thing to do. And selling off Telstra was an even better idea. Both were drains in the economy. Trying to get telecom to fix anything used to be a pain in the butt. Look at NBN, over priced garbage. There's nothing wrong with a user pays system. Why should people in Horsham pay for a road they don't use in Melbourne?

  NEWS: Starlink and Telstra expand satellite to mobile from texts to apps in an Australian first Eligible Telstra customers can now use select apps like Google Maps, WhatsApp and Apple Weather over Starlink Mobile in areas beyond the reach of the mobile network, with a clear view of the sky. In 13 months of satellite messaging, Telstra says customers have sent more than 26 million texts, with over 2.9 million users connecting and daily connections climbing from about 80,000 at launch to more than 200,000.

  Our internet is that bad tonight(Telstra) that a Berocca add came on and took 8 minutes to finish.

  @realRick_AUS We need him to have a full mobile network so we can piss Telstra and Optus off forever

  @gpeurocars These 1/2 wits leave us unsafe! Telstra & Optus widespread outages triggers severe, cascading national security & public emergencies as modern infrastructure is hyper-connected, a single software defect or network drop instantly paralyzes critical systems, not just calls. 2/2 🧵

  What's happening in the land down under 1. AusAlert passed the test. That’s not the same as passing the public. Millions of phones lit up during the national AusAlert test. Others got nothing. Older phones missed it. Landlines missed it. Queensland has already said it’s not signing up yet. The government still called it a success. That’s the problem with big national systems. They can work at scale and still fail the people who need them most. An emergency alert isn’t a marketing email. “Most people received it” isn’t the standard. The standard is whether it reaches the person in a flood zone, bushfire path, or cyclone area, including people with old devices, poor coverage, disabilities, or no smartphone at all. 2. Origin’s breach has moved from “what was stolen?” to “what was agreed?” Origin has confirmed data from about 900,000 current and former customers was taken. Now the alleged hacker says the matter has been privately settled and the data won’t be released. That leaves one very obvious question: was a ransom paid? Companies hate talking about this because there are no good options. Paying doesn’t guarantee deletion. Not paying can mean customer data gets dumped online. And either way, the people whose details were stolen have no say in the negotiation. The breach is the first failure. The weeks of uncertainty afterwards are the second. 3. A Telstra outage stopped trains. It shouldn’t have. A telecoms outage took out trains because the switch to the Telstra mobile network was poorly managed. This is what people mean when they talk about critical infrastructure. A train network shouldn’t depend on one fragile link behaving perfectly. The backup needs to be real. Tested. Able to fail over without someone discovering in the middle of an outage that the contingency plan was mostly a PDF and good intentions. Australia is wiring more of daily life into connected systems. Reliability is no longer an IT metric. It’s whether people can get home.
