  @MsMountebank Time to decimate overly generous executive pay. Again with #Origin, #Telstra, a known 'cheap' fix, with the impacts borne by customers. If they can't do their jobs don't pay them. Prices for both sectors ratcheted up regularly, even now during a cost of living crisis #auspol

  Ookla: DIRECT-TO-DEVICE COMES OF AGE IN ASIA PACIFIC 🛰📲 Satellite direct-to-device (D2D) service, which enables smartphones to connect directly to satellites in areas lacking terrestrial coverage, is expanding rapidly across the Asia Pacific region. The region’s first carrier-run nationwide satellite texting service launched with New Zealand’s One NZ in December 2024. By mid-2026, six Starlink-based commercial services operated across four markets: One NZ, Telstra (Australia), KDDI/SoftBank/NTT Docomo (Japan), and Globe (Philippines, launched June 2026) Australia and New Zealand showed the highest activity. Detected users averaged 25.7 and 23.0 scans per month (Jan–Jun 2026)—near daily contact. Usage rose through the southern warm season (peaking in April) and fell in winter, reflecting outdoor recreation and remote work in coverage gaps. These levels far exceed denser markets like the UK (~4 scans/month) and match Canada’s high reliance. Philippines held the region’s largest detected D2D base (64% in Q2 2026), with activity detected from January 2026—months before commercial launch. Pre-launch growth reflected testing and opportunistic registrations. Population scale and disaster needs (e.g., earthquakes, ~20 tropical cyclones yearly) drive demand; Globe offered free access during a June 2026 Mindanao quake. Per-capita and frequency of use remained lower than Australia’s. Japan has the broadest free access (three operators) yet lowest sustained use. Detected base in June 2026 was about half its July 2025 level; users averaged only 7.6 scans/month. High urbanization and >99.9% population terrestrial coverage limit exposure to gaps. Operator figures (e.g., Docomo’s 5 million connected users) are higher but measure one-time connections across iOS/Android. Services function mainly as retention tools.

  That's a wrap on @Techingov_AU in Canberra. Two consumer takeaways: new tech must work for everyone, not just the average user and trust in government services must be informed by consumers and measurable, including traceability of AI agents. Also a sharp breakdown of the Telstra outage from Frank den Hartog (Uni of Canberra). #TechinGov

  @myGovau Go digital they said. What that has got us? MyGov, Telstra, Optus hacked. Stolen identities, etc. This isn't even 1% the problem. Why keep pushing something that causes many problems & stress to everyday ppl? Tracing private citizens every move is the objective.

  @TruthFairy131 @Qantas are using the smoke screen of AI adoption to make offshoring Australian jobs to India more palatable while trying to portray itself as an Australian company. This **** seems to accelerate whenever there is an incompetent female CEO at the helm, just look at @Telstra

  @KataKez Telstra can already spam everyone connected to cell tower without this ****. Think about the times when you have travelled somewhere and you get that text saying something like they are “doing work on this network over the next 5 days”

  @montrosegraham @News24Aust South Australian police confirmed there is nothing to suggest a regional South Australian woman's death was caused by the recent Telstra outage or any failure to connect to Triple Zero.
