3 May 00:21
A mobile network for Christians with a built-in content filtering system is being developed in the U.S. This was announced by the developers of the virtual mobile operator Radiant Mobile, which is currently undergoing testing and plans to launch nationwide as early as next week, according to "Komersant Ukrainian".
“Radiant is more than just a rate plan. It’s network-level protection. We automatically block harmful content while giving parents real tools to control what their children have access to,” the developers say.
According to the creators’ concept, certain categories of content will not be downloaded to the user’s device. Specifically, the plan is to block sexually explicit content, as well as material related to violence, Satanism, and “cults.” The pornography filter cannot be disabled, while other restrictions can be customized.
Company CEO Paul Fisher stated that the project aims to create an environment centered on Christian values, free of content related to pornography, LGBT themes, and transgender issues.

The developers also noted that they consider the internet a toxic environment and advocate for content filtering. The system works by categorizing websites: resources can be assigned to multiple categories at once, and if one of them falls under the restrictions, the site may be blocked.
The company enlists Christian bloggers to promote its services and collaborates with thousands of churches across the country, offering them a share of revenue from user subscriptions.
At the same time, such projects already exist in the U.S. market. For example, Patriot Mobile has been operating since 2013, positioning itself as a Christian and conservative provider and supporting related movements.
