| Hi John,
Australian telco Optus announced it is offering mobile handsets to eligible customers at no cost and other special deals to customers impacted by the 3G shutdown.
Samsung announced it signed an agreement to acquire UK startup Oxford Semantic, which specialises in knowledge graph technology.
The Australian Mobile Telecommunications Association (AMTA) warned all Australians to act now and upgrade their 3G mobile device as major telcos Telstra and Optus will begin to turn off their national 3G networks six weeks from now. Australian telco Telstra has paid $1,551,000 to the Australian Communications and Media Authority (ACMA) after failing to perform required customer ID authentication processes, leaving thousands vulnerable to SIM-swap scams and other types of mobile fraud. Scam warning: The ACCC is aware that scammers have been calling people, falsely claiming to help them get a refund from various businesses. They may use this media release about refunds from Grays to convince you that it is real. Spending on switches deployed in AI back-end networks used to connect accelerated servers is forecast to approach US$80 billion over the next five years, nearly doubling the total data centre switch market opportunity, according to market research firm Dell’Oro Group. And as always there's plenty more today, so for all the news please visit www.itwire.com.
