  @MikeCarlton01 @Telstra That would be vodafone followed by optus and then telstra. Before anyone comes after me, vodafone went down for several months in 2010/2011, optus had a data breach in 2022 that affected nearly 10 million customers. Telstra just inconvenienced people.

  @RonniSalt This is a fake association and nothing to do with the Telstra outage.

  Why is it the USA can communicate with a space ship circulating the moon but Australia has such a hard job communicating with a ******* train just around the corner.. Because of this useless waste of space Anita Wells…. WHY is Australia STILL relying on just a single network for the train networks and 000 and a host of so many essential infrastructure ?? WHY hasn’t our government, especially after the Optus outages just changed the laws to the filthy rich telecommunications companies that they have to combine both networks together for things of major importance to the running of the country ?? 000 and train networks. You want a communications licence… fix the bloody thing so at least BOTH Telstra and Optus are both responsible for the safety of Australia and every Australian.. @AngusTaylorMP @PaulineHansonOz

  @WInsufficientia @PaulBongiorno Telstra may be a private corp, but Albanese’s Labor government literally contracts Telstra to run Triple Zero — the federal emergency call service. That’s why ACMA and the Triple Zero Custodian are investigating right now, and why Labor can hit them with up to $30 million in fines. Your history lesson is sloppy: partial sales started under Hawke/Keating Labor, final tranches under Howard. But that was 20 years ago. Albanese has been “fixing the LNP/PHON mess” since 2022 — and the result under his watch is a software bug that wiped out 600+ Triple Zero calls, stopped trains, triggered hundreds of welfare checks, and may have killed someone. Blaming 1997–2006 ghosts while your government fails to enforce basic oversight on critical infrastructure today is pure deflection. Stop whitewashing another Labor failure, puppet.

  Telstra is a PRIVATE CORPORATION not a govt institutuon. LNP with Hanson (Ind) in 1997.. partial sale & 2006 with PHON support.. FULL sale! That’s why it’s NOT a good idea to PRIVATISE VITAL INDUSTRIES (communications banks etc)! Labor STILL dealing with/fixing LNP/PHON MESS!

  @MikeCarlton01 @Telstra Look at the bright side. Now you know the Y2K bug was NOT a scam. Can you imagine what would have happened if Telstra didn’t take action to prevent the Y2K meltdown. This was a midrange server issue. If the Telstra mainframe systems go down it could have been a lot worse.

  I can't help wondering what the connection to the Telstra outage was as well.

  @TimLooker @ABCaustralia Since privatisation Telstra has got rid of most of its technical staff and focused on ways to squeeze consumers harder for profits. They have consistently and brazenly ignored their service obligations and treat Australians as mugs. Thanks John Howard you evil prick

  @daz930 @TerenceMcCart14 Costs for the land from Council. The advertising revenue more than covers the network costs and is a profit centre for Telstra. Since suburban ones would be running at a loss, but under city/CBD highly profitable. Run mix of Telstra and 3rd party advertising.

  @MikeCarlton01 @Telstra Telecommunications network technology is unimaginably complex. Knowing about potential problems & being able to find & fix all of them are completely different things. Telstra & ACMA bosses are to blame. But because they make decisions based on self-interest. Not incompetence.
