Hey Australian Internet Peeps of the 1990s,

I am trying to find some definitive information about a Federal(?) government “Community Public Access Network (CPAN)”, which I believe existed between at least 1995-1997.

I have solid memories of this as a teenager visiting a local Government building to access the internet (which was mainly gopher at the time) and obtaining an email address which was @cpan.???.gov.au with Eudora on a floppy disk. The service I think shut down around 1997 and people were told to go and sign up with new email provider Hotmail.

I have not been able to find any references to this early internet service and would love to try and get some information about it.

Special Shoutout @NewtonMark any chance you have any knowledge on this, or have a contact who would? (I am too scared to cold-message Geoff Huston :))

SK Telecom cyberattack: Free SIM replacements for 25 million customers

- Didn't realize these guys were compromised so deeply
- At least they seem to own up to it and take the necessary steps. I'm not sure every operator would have done that.
