  @EVERALDATLARGE As ever, @australianlabor will hide behind "the responsible use of taxpayers' money" not to use targeted ownership to regain parts of Telstra. What happens there is another outage? Is it acceptable to just let people die? Don't think so.

  ******* hell the editing in the Saturday Age is abysmal. "Although it was not particular[ly] long by his standards," Fiona Byrne on Hinch "Brady and Ackland fronted the [media/public/nation] with confidence" Nick Bonyhady on Telstra outage 1/2

  @SkyNewsAust When Telstra failed to deliver reliable service, Jason Clare MP @JasonClareMP, the Albanese Labor Government's Minister for Education, said: "People could have died." But when @AlboMP broke his campaign promise, Jim Chalmers, the Albanese Labor Government's Treasurer, said: "People will get through it." ******* shameless.

  @footyindustryAU Telstra is the major sponsor of rugby league. What is it doing to help junior league clubs??

  @RizviAbul Sale of Telstra wouldn't have made much difference, if its a software issue(may very well have been) then the problem remains wregardless of the owner. Perhaps what you mean is the Government should have held on to the networks the Telcos use.

  @Spanners_cat Do you think the Great Twitter/X/Facebook/bluesky/my space ruckus of 2026 had a detrimental hand in this weeks Telstra outage? I’m seeing a common thread here.

  @FetchStep It doesn't work that way inside Telstra. I've worked there. There are so many layers of management it's next to impossible for a technician to speak directly to a CEO about a potential problem. That's my point here. Listen to the technicians & build it with more resilience.

  Regarding @Telstra outage recently.... looks like were 'hacked' i think this is an insurance claim. So insurance detectives will make hackers cough up to reimburse those affected. If people wait until insurance case is processed, just put in your claims to telstra, and in due course you will be generously reimbursed by culprit hackers responsible after insurance company processes this case. I suspect Chinese government, so they have lots of money to reimburse everyone. @VictoriaPolice
