  ngl @Starlink is a complete game changer for australia and remote communities all over the world telstra at the very least deserves this disruption, it is their just deserts for lobbying to hamstring australia's national broadband network (what do you think, @MrKRudd?)

  @Telstra I'm an Aussie working in the US for a few years. I keep my Aussie mobile account paid for when I come home to visit. Can you please explain how mobile data charges are higher with you in Australia, compared to my US cell service on mobile roaming?

  @the_LoungeFly @Telstra 2/2 ...regarding my plan's data He claimed I'd been paying $50/mth 4 3MB of data I contacted Telstra via FB They must have told him He wasn't happy When he finally contacted tech support to fix it he listened in while I was giving feedback I reported that breach of privacy on FB

  @Martywa467 @VoteLewko @Starlink NBN faults are dealt with via the telcos. After four cancelled appointments by NBN after Telstra said it was an NBN issue ( it was), I bought a Telstra 5G router and threw out the NBN box. I would prefer Starlink but it has a congestion charge in our area of $700.

Refused to escalate "Deprovisioning" of SIM cards unable to make calls to transmit data, demanding "samples" of calls to/from +1-408 by IBM and PARC from Military Classified numbers for over 10 years. Refused to comply with Data Sovereignty rules and to respect the classified nature of the "samples" they were requesting and I refused to provide till I am talking to a suitably qualified person or engineer calling from within Australia. Refused to comply with "Do not talk to computer scientists over insecure channels" rule. I then said "will not escalate till I provide samples", I explained "deprovisioned" is more than enough to escalate and samples to that end have been provided. Call put on mute, stayed silent for 5 mins then other end terminated call. AP
