  Ring ring (random mobile number) “Hello is that Lynette? It’s Steven from Telstra to discuss your internet connection” Me: “Well that’s bullshit Steven, I’m not with Telstra. Take your scam and **** off arsehole” Was gone very fast. Bunch of c**nts.

  I wouldn’t invest in Telstra. - $300M in growth just from increasing their mobile pricing on Post-Paid and Pre-Paid. - 11% pay rise for the CEO. - Loss of 30K mobile customers. Essentially they are lifting consumer pricing as a way to offset poor growth. Way too pricy.

  @PeterD84508 @DHughesy You idiot. Both sides of parliament agreed to sell. It was costing Australians hundreds of millions as a public service model. If Telstra was government owned now we’d be further down a hole.

  When ChatGPT Beats High-Priced Lawyers in Court 1/9 A Sydney uni lecturer just beat a university’s legal team in court using ChatGPT. Telstra bumped its CEO’s pay right after cutting jobs and crashing the network. And researchers found a way to hack a Boeing 737 with a device the size of a 20-cent coin. Here is the tech news that actually matters this week 🧵👇 2/9 Greg Baker, an IT lecturer at Macquarie University, took on his employer at the Fair Work Commission over new casual conversion rules. The university brought trained lawyers. Baker brought ChatGPT. The tribunal ruled in his favour, handing him a permanent part-time role in a historic test of untested employment laws. 3/9 This is why people get excited about everyday AI. Hiring a workplace lawyer to fight an employer costs thousands before you even walk through the door. An LLM can comb through legislation, draft arguments, and help someone represent themselves without spending a fortune. The real shift isn't AI replacing judges. It's giving ordinary workers the legal firepower usually reserved for big HR departments. 4/9 Anthropic confirmed Claude will soon add invisible watermarks to text and files to meet EU rules. The watermark stays attached even after you copy, paste, or tweak the wording. Some users are already cancelling subscriptions over it. Nobody wants to hand in a report they spent hours editing only for an automated filter to flag the entire thing as machine-written. 5/9 Telstra decided to give its CEO a base pay bump. The timing is wild: • A massive nationwide network outage in July • 1,200 staff cut across the year • A slump in top-line revenue • Threats to freeze regional mobile investments if the ACCC pushes for domestic roaming Corporate boards have an incredible ability to read the room completely backwards. 6/9 A routine "system update" triggered a major Mastercard outage across Australia this week. Shoppers got stuck at checkouts with full trolleys and tap-and-go cards declining everywhere. We keep pushing towards a cashless economy, but our payment rails fall over whenever someone pushes the wrong configuration file. 7/9 Security researchers proved they could compromise a Boeing 737 using a coin-sized hardware device. It took them roughly 60 seconds to gain access. Physical plane safety used to be about rivets and engines. Modern aviation is networks, firmware, and bus architectures. If you can physically plug into a port, the jet is just another computer with wings. 8/9 Retailers are now testing facial recognition scans at the register so you can pay for your flat white with your face. It saves about two seconds compared to tapping a phone. In return, a commercial database gets your biometric scan. Hard pass on trading facial geometry for a cappuccino. 9/9 The thread tying all of this together: AI is levelling the playing field for individuals against giant institutions. Meanwhile, critical infrastructure (planes, payments, telcos) is becoming more fragile by the day. Tech works best when it empowers people, not when it creates single points of failure.

  @central01000011 Depends on the network, Telstra and Optus are great. But I have no idea about Vodafone.

  @Telstra Will now take this up with the Ombudsman, asking them to note it is resolved in favour of the customer and the delay in responding is your deliberate attempt to delay compensation. Stick that where it fits, or where the sun don’t shine.

  Senator Sarah Henderson (@SenSHenderson) reported 32 minutes ago

  Anika Wells’ claim 'the industry must learn from its mistakes' following a damning report into the catastrophic Telstra outage is not good enough.  The collapse of Telstra’s mobile network on 8 July this year caused chaos with payment systems, shut down train networks, and stopped some people calling triple zero. Mobile telecommunications networks are critical infrastructure.  That is why, on the day of the outage, the Coalition called on the government to urgently deliver mobile network reliability standards.  There must be appropriate minimum standards in place governing the reliability, performance, and maintenance of our mobile networks with significant penalties when those standards are breached.  Asking telcos to 'rebuild trust with Australians by ensuring networks do not succumb to preventable failures’, as the minister stated today, is like hitting the telcos with a piece of wet lettuce.  The minister’s silence on the need for a tougher regulatory framework is deafening.

  @slinkjej @25YearsAgoLive Eh. Other than that. I don’t think Howard has much of a chance much longer. He’s getting WAY too long in the tooth for me since the Telstra sale which was stupid. Here’s hoping this isn’t a repeating incident no less
