@Optus you guys are cooked.
I am trying to solve an account issue but I need to sign in to the messenger app.
When I try, it says there is not enough information on my account, and to log in via the app and send a message to sort it. You are running me in circles.

I hope this is stage 1

My oped in @Innov_Aus about the #OptusDataBreach.
“The deep problem isn’t identity at all. It’s the way we use personal data.”
We need to stop data being replayed by criminals. Making any other change to identification would take generations.

@HansOrph @Optus They're owned by Singtel, which has 50 billion dollars in ***ets & 27 billion in equity. They're not going down. They have a lot of work to do, that's for sure, but this will **** over. If anyone thinks this is a one off, think again. Other companies will get hit far worse.

Given Optus’ utter failure at protecting customer data, privacy is a big issue in Australia. Our public institutions are unprepared to meaningfully discuss it. They constantly want, and exploit private data, seeing it as their due. They _need_ it. Do they? For how long?
