Weekly output: AT&T 5G, Meta breakup bid blocked, Mozilla Foundation, social-media usage, Starship and New Glenn

I spent much of the only week in November not disrupted by my own travel schedule catching up on things from the previous two weeks. As you can see from the list below, that was an incomplete exercise.

(Speaking of previous weeks, I also wrote a post for Patreon supporters recapping my experience at Web Summit in Lisbon.)

11/17/2025: AT&T Boosts 5G Speed and Capacity With EchoStar Spectrum, PCMag

Having written in September about Boost Mobile’s plans to sell this spectrum to AT&T, I felt obliged to cover AT&T putting those frequencies into service sooner than I would have imagined possible.

11/19/2025: Court Rejects FTC’s Bid to Break Up Meta, Finds It’s Not a Social Media Monopoly, PCMag

I didn’t span on spending a large chunk of Tuesday afternoon reading a judge’s opinion about the Federal Trade Commission’s attempt to order Meta to undo its acquisitions of Instagram and WhatsApp. I also didn’t expect to find the judge’s analysis of Facebook so relatable.

11/20/2025: With Its Next Big Thing, Mozilla Wants to Do More Than Improve the Web, PCMag

The interview at the center of this post happened two weeks earlier, so I appreciated the Mozilla Foundation providing some details about early proposals received since then for its AI-for-democracy funding program.

11/20/2025: Among Social Media Users, Reddit Soars As X Stagnates, PCMag

Thursday had no work items on my calendar, so I could cover this new report from the Pew Research Center about which social platforms have earned time on the schedules of Americans.

11/21/2025: SpaceX’s Starship Suffers Major Test Mishap a Day After Blue Origin Unveils Rocket Upgrade Plans, PCMag

I was going to spent Friday writing a post about an information-security conference I attended Tuesday, but then SpaceX had the booster stage of its Starship rocket fail catastrophically in a ground test a day after that company’s increasingly-capable rival Blue Origin outlined some ambitious upgrades to its own New Glenn launch vehicle.

Meta, het moederbedrijf van onder meer Facebook en Instagram, krijgt meer tijd om aanpassingen te doen aan de tijdlijnen van de apps. Gebruikers moeten het algoritme van de sociale media makkelijker kunnen omzeilen, zo oordeelde de rechter eerder. Meta vroeg...

De socialenetwerkdienst Meta moet stoppen met het aanbieden van gepersonaliseerde advertenties op Facebook en Instagram. Dit is onrechtmatig, aldus de Europese privacytoezichthouders, waaronder de Autoriteit Persoonsgegevens (AP).
