Do feature phones still have a place in 2024? Absolutely, but what’s it like to use one? I’ve been testing out the Aspera F50 to find out. Here's my full text and video review!
Random question, but do any of you #game on mobile data?
If so, I'm intrigued on what technology you use for it (e.g. #3G UMTS, 3G HSPA+, #4G LTE, #5G NR), what games you play on it (e.g. Splatoon 3, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe), what your current carrier is (e.g. EE, vodafone UK), what your area is (e.g. West Midlands, England) and how your experience is like for it (e.g. good, bad).
I don't know whether I'll ever get back to making videos, but if I do, one of the ideas I had was making a video about gaming on 4G.
Because if one has an accident with no withnesses or other traffic coming for minutes if not hours, chances are it's some rural road with no #GSM (or #3G / #4G / #5G reception at all...
@rival_elf I mean it's not like with #3G or #4G where equipment to crack those costs 6 digits ...
Pretty shure a #HackRF with good crystal, maybe a #GNSS reciever for a somewhat accurate and a #RaspberryPi are all that's needed, since those together will likely have more computational power than the average core network when #2G networks were launched.
ok look I know this is really stupid and pedantic, but come on, we’ve had 26 years to learn this
It's Wi-Fi
not Wifi or WiFi or wifi or wi fi
Wi-Fi. Hyphenated. Both words capitalized.
thank you for coming to my ted talk
(while you're here, “log in" is two words when being used as a verb… your login button or link should not say "login”, because the action they take is to "log in”)
#Cybersecurity#Cellphones#Surveillance#MobilePhones#3G#4G#5G#Privacy: "This report provides a high-level overview of the geolocation-related threats associated with contemporary networks that depend on the protocols used by 3G, 4G, and 5G network operators, followed by evidence of the proliferation of these threats. Part 1 provides the historical context of unauthorized location disclosures in mobile networks and the importance of the target identifiers used by surveillance actors. Part 2 explains how mobile networks are made vulnerable by signaling protocols used for international roaming, and how networks are made available to surveillance actors to carry out attacks. An overview of the mobile ecosystem lays the foundation for the technical details of domestic versus international network surveillance, while the vectors of active versus passive surveillance techniques with evidence of attacks shows how location information is presented to the actor. Part 3 provides details of a case study from a media report that shows evidence of widespread state-sponsored surveillance, followed by threat intelligence data revealing network sources attributed to attacks detected in 2023. These case studies underscore the significance and relevance of undertaking these kinds of surveillance operations.
Deficiencies in oversight and accountability of network security are discussed in Part 4. This includes outlining the incentives and enablers that are provided to surveillance actors from industry organizations and government regulatory agencies. Part 5 makes clear that the adoption of 5G technologies will not mitigate future surveillance risks unless policymakers quickly move to compel telecommunications providers to adopt the security features that are available in 5G standards and equipment. If policymakers do not move swiftly then surveillance actors may continue to prey upon mobile phone users by tracking their physical location."
Any #mobile#network engineers here who can let me know if it's possible to block a working mobile number across all networks?
My daughter's phone number stopped accepting incoming calls ("You've dialled an incorrect number") in August and ID.Mobile are unable to fix it. Outgoing calls and data work fine.
Wondering if it's been blacklisted for some reason.
@aslmx@CodexArcanum@mastodonmigration Yeah, but nobody uses it and I've yet to see any use case - whereas #MMS was used until most providers in Germany canceled support for it - just like #3G / #GPRS was used wherever #4G / #LTE was unavailable...
Ok. Now I'm utterly confused. 1minute after crossing the Danish border my 3G connection is faster than all the German 4G and quite a lot of the German 5G signal when on the web.
Is my provider deliberately slowing things down in our neighbour to the south?
Lorraine. DAB + : la radio numérique nouvelle génération arrive dans nos départements
La Lorraine est maintenant couverte par le DAB + (Digital Audio Broadcasting). Cette nouvelle technologie va permettre aux auditeurs d’écouter leur radio préférée avec une qualité supérieure. Elle se veut plus pratique et plus intuitive pour les utilisateurs.
