T mobile began censoring private text messages a few days ago. Have a little fun and experiement with your friends who use T mobile as their provider.
So far, it appears no one is objecting. This is only the beginning.

Yes. Specific URLs not being delivered. Texts with my own words still go thru no problem as far as we can tell but links would not be received. I would take a screenshot of what I had tried to send and attach that, no problem. My Aunt had to type in the link address from my screenshot because the link had been censored. She is going to change providers but I'm doubtful that will solve the problem.
How can I test this? I have T-mobile. What can I write that would be censored?
Links to patriots.win were censored as well as a link to a cat box file with the interview by Rosa Koire explaining Agenda 21.
Here is the Rosa Koire link I mentioned that was not delivered to a t mobile services device.
Then maybe try sending a link to your personal work web address or some other benign thing like that. You'll notice that the personal work web address gets delivered and the greatawakening.win or patriots.win or Rosa Koire's interview here https://files.catbox.moe/ct6ta8.mp4
I don't know from personal experience if t mobile is censoring outbound texts but I imagine they are using some tech to block the links they don't want shared in both directions. So far we have only confirmed the censorship when the t mobile recipient is attempting to receive a link from me.
The same links that are not being delivered to t mobile recipients are being delivered without issue, so far, to friends using other carriers.
They were doing that just after the election as well
I wonder why no one is talking about it now? Are we just ok with it at this point?
It's one thing for Fakebook to censor posts on their site and even to extend that to their SMS messages but now that they are censoring text messages and what's next...email messages? I would think more people would be objecting.
My family uses T-mobile and we have seen zero signs of anything like this.
That's interesting. In the case of texting with my Aunt which is what prompted my post, we had no problems with her t mobile provider either up until a few days ago when we started noticing that links I was sharing with her were not being delivered.
Ive noticed this happening from T-Mobile a while ago. Every time Id try to send someone the link to great awakening the reciever would never get the text when all other messages to that person worked fine. I figured there was something fishy going on.
Yeah, I would send her a message, then send her a link and she would respond: "link?" And I would then say, you didn't get the link? This happened a few times and then we decided to test it by trying a variety of links, some that went through with no problem and others that were censored. I would then take a screenshot of exactly what was sent, attach that for her and she would see that on my end it sent and on hers it was undelivered, or rather selectively undelivered since she continue to receive links that would not offend those creating the false narrative.
What, you need a screenshot of a private conversation with my Aunt and that is somehow going to serve as "proof?" How about don't be so lazy and test it for yourself. It's not that difficult to confirm this and not really imaginable that you know no one who uses t mobile as their service provider. I don't have some public announcement from t mobile confirming that they are doing this. If that's what you require for proof you're gonna be waiting awhile.
There's no such thing as a "private" text message.
