  @InsidersABC, an IT expert, or even someone with eyes, will tell you that if all our Telstra and Optus routers are made by Huwai, there is no point locking them out of the 5G network.

  @TimLooker @ABCaustralia I used to work in Telcos. Even in the UK, Telstra was considered the gold standard, If you had traffic problems and could re-route calls over Telstra, it was a no-brainer. It should never have been privatized. Just like Qantas!

  @JacintaAllanMP @narendramodi Amazing how Telstra CEO gets on TV and apologises because there was an outage that lasted 5hrs that effected quiet a few people for …5 hrs… Yet these two spineless pricks completely **** the rest of our lives for decades if your in your 20’s and they don’t give a ****..

  @freedom4UU Telstra's pricing is over the top for every consumer! To be fair, Telstra needs to bring their prices way down to compensate everyone affected by their F_ck up!

  The government’s big idea for fixing telco failures? Slap them with a $7.3 billion spectrum renewal tax — almost double what Telstra considered fair value — then threaten massive fines for triple-zero outages. Gartner analyst Khurram Shazad said it outright: this can do the opposite of strengthening resilience. Telcos are already stuck with stagnating revenue growth. These inflated spectrum fees just crush their margins harder. So they do the obvious thing under pressure. They stop spending on actual redundancy. No secondary backup power systems at base stations. No automated routing failovers. No diverse fibre backhaul paths. Capital expenditure gets deferred instead. The core network becomes brittle. One software glitch or timeserver ****-up and failures cascade into proper disasters. High spectrum costs simply extract the economic surplus from the sector. Networks look faster on paper because of the shiny new bands. In practice they are significantly less resilient when it actually matters. When the next outage hits and the “improved” networks fall over anyway, who gets the blame?

  @Telstra need to sack #VickiBrady because she’s a walking contradiction. She admitted they knew about the time-keeping vulnerabilities but didn’t bother addressing them, that directly undermines the her claim that public safety and 000 service lines are Telstra absolute priority

  @AlastairClimate @PaulBongiorno Telstra (not Tesla, genius) was privatised by Howard, but Albanese’s Labor government directly contracts Telstra as the Emergency Call Person for Triple Zero. That’s why ACMA and the new Triple Zero Custodian are investigating, and why Labor can slap them with up to $30 million in fines. This wasn’t some 1990s relic. A software defect triggered a nationwide meltdown on 8 July 2026: 600+ Triple Zero calls failed, V/Line trains halted, payments and services crashed, hundreds needed welfare checks, and police are investigating a death potentially linked to it. Telstra itself admitted a secondary Triple Zero fault the next day. Your desperate “privatised decades ago, not our problem” line is pure hack deflection. The federal government has statutory oversight, regulatory power, and contractual responsibility for critical emergency infrastructure right now under Labor. Stop peddling ABC-grade spin for a clapped-out regime that can’t even keep Triple Zero working. Crawl back to your echo chamber.
