[AusNOG] Telstra's Texan Teaser - Tin Foil Stetsun anyone?

[Joseph Goldman]

Just spent the last 20 minutes calling around, spoke to ACCC who 
dutifully and correctly informed me that they do not deal with Privacy 
Concerns, which this is, and I was left pondering why I would even call 
them in the first place (as I knew this ?! :/).

Spoke to the privacy commissioner (privacy.gov.au), whom suggested I 
need to contact Telstra about it as a privacy complaint, give them 30 
days to respond, and if no response or inadequate response, log a 
privacy complaint over at oaic.gov.au.

  I mentioned my phone call and the answer I was given, and that there 
is no opt-out, Privacy commissioner office said that if I was unhappy 
with that answer, log a complaint to oaic.gov.au straight away, which I 
will do now, and leave it with them to see if they can sus out an 
'official answer' to this occurrence.
