Last Summer I got to test Apple’s satellite texting feature, bundled through Globalstar. It was magical. In southern Idaho, far from any cell towers, climbing

Being locked out of the App Store and Play Store, on the other hand, is a slow squeeze. The first thing that comes to mind, obviously, is no new users. No growth. I was never particularly tempted to use TikTok. Something about the nature of videos rushing by just isn’
