As the name implies, Direct-to-Cell (D2C) provides internet and messaging by connecting smartphones directly to a satellite. Unlike Starlink, D2C doesn’t require ground terminals, “dishes,” or routers to function.
Capabilities found in many smartphones manufactured from 2020 onwards — such as those powering Apple’s Emergency SOS via Satellite — provide the technical foundation for the connectivity.
proven useful in humanitarian disasters, they typically rely on cooperation with local cellular carriers. This, Alimardani explains, would not be a “viable solution in Iran” as state-controlled ISPs would block circumvention methods.
Now, however, a second generation of D2C is emerging that could overcome these limitations.

2·18 days agoOntario Premier Doug Ford is asking his counterparts in Quebec and British Columbia to drop their electric-vehicle sales targets, saying they are making the country less competitive.
In the fall, both provinces scaled back or dropped their previous goals of having all new vehicle sales be zero emissions in 2035, but Ford believes they should go further.
He said in letters sent Wednesday to the premiers that Ontario’s auto sector is an economic driver for Canada, employing nearly 100,000 people, and moves in the United States to roll back electric vehicle policies has an effect on this country’s market.
