In short:
Telstra’s mobile network has suffered a major nationwide outage, affecting millions of customers and causing delays to public transport networks.
Some regional train services in NSW and Victoria have been suspended, and taxi passengers are reporting they are unable to complete payments.
What’s next?
Telstra says it is looking into the issue and will share an update once it is fixed.
… police in Western Australia have posted a statement on Facebook saying the outage appears to have affected some Triple Zero calls …


It was NTP. Apparently Telstra didn’t like using Open Source NTPd and timed and attempted to use their own Vibe Coded time calibration solution.
This is all bullshit I just made up, but I like spreading rumours about how stupid corporate business are 😏
