Just tried to send a friend a story about Parkinson’s from lemmy.world and every single time TMobile strips the link from my SMS. They let tumblr.com though.

I just looked up if they’re actively censoring other sites and, yes. They are. They claim they’re only doing this to obscure domains (.xyz and so on) but I just watched a YouTuber demonstrate .com censorship too. So it seems it’s less arbitrary than they claim.

The conservatives are crying about it like it’s just them getting censored but it seems it’s beyond party lines if I can’t share an article about Parkinson’s research.

    I can verify that this happened to me on t-mobile about 2 weeks ago, was unable to send a link to my community to a friend. Another reason on a long list of reasons to hate t-mobile.
