> Optus notifies customers of cyberattack compromising customer information

- the notification being finding a link to their quietly released press release on HN this afternoon? Thanks Optus!

- cyberattack is the word to use to encourage speculation that a nation-state was behind the breach, that there was no way to defend against this and to avoid saying "data breach"

- here "customer information" means current and former Optus customers' personal information
