Interesting explanation about what really went wrong with Optus last week.

The short version: it looks like Optus doesn't control its own core network. Its parent company Singapore Telecom does. Optus just resells it.

Which is why Optis' CEO was so vague about what the issue actually was: she was protecting her bosses in Singapore.

@ajsadauskas @technology I could have told you that, and I do DevOps from NZ. I had to trace a strange network fault for an Australian client once and found that it was all SingTel.

85 years ago, Hitler set in motion the violent pogrom of Kristallnacht.

It represented the turning point where he decided extreme violence against Jews would no longer be left to the Nazi brownshirts. Rather, it would be wielded by the German government.

@TheConversationUS @histodons Seems like millions of people around the world right now are failing to learn from history and a repeat will doom us all.
