Paul Stenhouse: Space X bringing more cellphone coverage - Saturday Morning with Jack Tame

Cellphone signal from the sky  

Elon Musk’s SpaceX and US mobile carrier T-Mobile are partnering to be able to offer cellphone coverage in more places than ever before. New satellites with improved antennas will allow current cellphones to be able to connect to send and receive text messages - then later calls and browse the internet. No ground cellphone towers or special adapters required as they’re using the same 5G frequencies already built into your phone.  

Man banned from Google after taking pictures of his naked son 

The images were scanned as part of Google’s efforts to combat images of child sexual abuse. But he wasn’t commuting a crime, in fact the opposite. He was taking pictures, as requested by a nurse, of his son’s swollen penis so the doctor could diagnose the cause ahead of a video consultation. The police agreed no crime had been committed but google disagreed and said it broke their terms and conditions. So he lost his emails, contacts, photos and even his phone number as Google also provided his cell service.
