⚡️FCC to Shut Down 1,000+ VoIP Companies
Do you use a VoIP service? On August 28, over 1,000 U.S. VoIP providers were forced to stop service under a new FCC order.
The reason: companies didn’t meet the latest Robocall Mitigation Database requirements under the TRACED Act. That means within 2 business days, all other carriers must block traffic from these providers.
This isn’t just about robocalls. It’s also about surveillance — with call lookups, timestamps, calling parties, and more stored for months at a time.
Check if your provider is on the list here:

The Unique Personal Registry Code (biometric CURP) project in Mexico, which requires the compulsory submission of face, fingerprints and iris biometrics, is not going ahead as planned in some parts of the country following court injunctions.
The new personal identification system, which was made mandatory in July, has been halted by at least three tribunals after a barrage of criticisms and legal challenges over data security and privacy, Yucatán Magazine reports.
One of the suspensions follows a decision from the Collegiate Tribunal for Criminal and Administrative Matters in Yucatán, when it ruled on the filing of a complaint by an individual.
Similar decisions to suspend the mandatory biometric collection have also been granted by tribunals in Mexico City and Querétaro. https://www.biometricupdate.com/202509/mexico-courts-pause-biometric-curp-project-over-data-privacy-concerns

microLED is supposedly better than OLED - it's certainly brighter. These watches can do texts and voice calling over LTE-M, texts and voice messages over satellite.
