Some code related to "PFCP offloading" or "PFCP tunneling" has just appeared in mainline linux. Oddly enougn PFCP is not a tunneling protocol, and the code itself claims its not implementing PFCP. Trying to find out more about it: https://lists.openwall.net/netdev/2024/05/15/95 #linux #3gpp #telecom - if anyone knows more, I am very curious.

behind the scenes, we've been helping @onomondo implementing a complete UICC/USIM in pure software. This code has just been publicly released as open source software, see https://github.com/onomondo/onomondo-uicc #opensource #telecom #gsm #3gpp

#osmocom pySim will soon have GlobalPlatform SCP02 and SCP03 support. Code is already working against real cards but needs cleanup: https://gerrit.osmocom.org/c/pysim/+/35462 and https://gerrit.osmocom.org/c/pysim/+/35793 #simcards #gsm #3gpp

I finally got my proof-of-concept (and world wide first open source) SM-DP+ for consumer eSIM to work. This is the component from which the eUICC (chip in phone) downloads encrypted eSIM profiles. Code at https://gerrit.osmocom.org/c/pysim/+/35461 - will be merged to pysim master soon. #GSMA #3gpp

“It’s easier, and more comfortable, for #Google to argue that it’s all about the #GreenBubbles. The hard truth is that #iPhones and #iOS are simply better overall.”

The #CIRP report at https://cirpapple.substack.com/p/why-android-owners-switch-to-iphone disingenuously leads with “for some buyers [the reasons] include the desire to use #iMessage and #FaceTime among family and friends.” But it turns out that number is only 6%!
