  • @BrikoX Good, but I think too small.

    • title of your sex tape

    • The ramifications of this is the black-listing of dozens of VoLTE phones following the 3G shutdown. This government slap-on-the-wrist has given Optus, Telstra and Vodafone carte-blanche to tell customers “you didn’t buy the phone from us, so we can’t guarantee you can make calls”.

      • @Salvo @MorpheusB Cos who doesn't like paying network's prices for their choice of handsets with their bloatware running on their choice of OS? I really want ACCC to hit them with a massive stick over this.
