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.
Hey! I discovered this awhile ago. They filter all world domains, and there was another TLD they filter too, but I can’t remember now. I tried sending to iPhone and Android users with the same results.
