3G Closure – Preparing for the Impending 3G Network Shutdown in Aotearoa
Kia ora, I think there is way more that we can be doing in Aotearoa to prepare for the 3G mobile network shutdowns at the end of 2025--particularly for older people, remote and financially constrained people. I've made a website for those who want to find out more about the issues: 3gclosure.nz

Does anyone have any insights/thoughts into how likely anti-5G positions might rise to prominence as the 3G networks are retired in Aotearoa at the end of this year? Networks will be forcing some people--those whose phones currently use 3G--to upgrade to get service.

Pacific profiles: Meet the three friends behind Ōtautahi collective Brown Town
'We found a home in each other and realised the huge need for many more brown people living in Ōtautahi to have something like this.'
Here are some young people who haven't found a Māori and Pasifika community in Ōtautahi so they are trying to build it. In a sign of the political times, their measures to reduce the barriers to doing this is touted as discriminatory. Good to see this profile. thespinoff.co.nz/society/18-0...
