  The media is WAY overestimating public interest in what the hell went wrong with the brief Telstra outage. Who really cares apart from tech heads? Learn from the mistake, MOVE ON. #auspol

  Breaking: Telstra has admitted in Estimates they were repeatedly warned since 2022 by the software manufacturer that their outage-causing software was out of date inc a reminder early 2026, & Telstra even discovered a “fault” with it themselves in Oct 2025, but still did nothing

  @VoteLewko Telstra is probably still carrying decades of tech debt. That old stuff has a bad habit of biting from time to time.

  What is going on with @Telstra in metro Melbourne? Any chance of a support service that can actually fix issues instead of telling us to try again in 42 hours and then conveniently "closing" your chat lines?!!!

  @strangerous10 And they pushed back at global roaming as well. Happens as a default in most countries. Would save a lot of problems if Telstra or Optus shared their networks when network problems arose with any communications provider in Australia 🇦🇺 @AlboMP

  🔴 Telstra CEO faces parliamentary inquiry over nationwide outage affecting emergency calls, payments Telstra chief executive Vicki Brady will testify Friday before an emergency parliamentary inquiry into last week's outage that knocked out triple zero emergency calls, disrupted payment systems, and stopped trains in two Australian states. Greens communication spokesperson Sarah Hanson-Young said: "Telstra, just like Optus, has put their profits ahead of public safety and public service for far too long, and the law allows them to." • Telstra accepting compensation claims from affected customers and small businesses with supporting evidence

  @CompSciFutures Holy kow I can’t believe Telstra and COA VICPOL still have not reconnected my M2M Medical emergency assistance sims. I’m supposed to be working on Tier 1 NOC for this cyber crisis. @FSF even prepaid me in stickers!!! F off McKinsey. See my GitHub: APMonitor. It’s big in NYC as a B NOC, because: walking down the street and throwing a date point over the fence. 🤘🤘🤘

  @AllBiteNoBark88 Do you think the so called Telstra outage last week may have been a deliberate shutdown for upgrading? Think about it.
