@lnxw37b2 To be fair to the #MLB, they offer packages in #MLBTV that let fans get around blackout restrictions. Unfortunately, this year things seem to be a bit worse, with #MLBTV being a little more complicated to sign up for now that you have to sign up for an #ESPN account if not a subscription as well, and some of those in-market packages no longer featuring bundles with the national #MLBTV service.

@lnxw37b2 The #MLB wants to (the commisioner #RobertManfred on #PMSLive told #PatMcAfee said he wants to get rid of blackout rules last year: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5KK19cTVwbY ) , but I think that either the teams, the broadcasting companies, or both want to keep those restrictions in place.
I frankly think that there’s definitely a middle ground that can be found by having, say, $50 to $100 of a user’s yearly #MLBTV subscription get funneled to whoever is in their local market, but IDK, I think we’re at least a contract or two away from getting an agreement that solves this problem.

Weekly output: T-Mobile’s 5G progress, Trump cybersecurity strategy, T-Mobile’s MLB.tv bonus, IRL experiences in an AI age
AUSTIN–After a year off, I’m back at SXSW for my 12th visit as a journalist but only my third as a speaker, courtesy of a panel I’m moderating about gaming culture Tuesday. I picked up that gig when the original moderator couldn’t make the trip, after which panel organizer Nika Nour, a friend from tech-policy circles, asked if I could step in.
Patreon readers got a much longer bonus post than usual this week–the SXSW feature that GQ China never paid me for in 2023 or even, as far as I could tell, published.
3/9/2026: Skylo’s trajectory toward the ‘standardized sky’ looks to include multiple orbits, Light Reading
My show-floor appointments at MWC Barcelona concluded with my meeting Skylo CEO Parthsarathi Trivedi to talk about that satellite-to-device firm’s plans to move beyond messaging.
3/9/2026: T-Mobile: Network Slices Are Nice, But Not Necessarily a Consumer Service, PCMag
I sat down with T-Mobile’s network head on the afternoon of my last day at MWC, then needed to confirm some details with T-Mobile PR, then did not think to check one additional detail that then subsequently required a correction. That oversight, in turn, happened because I ignored my thought to self “that looks weird” in favor of congratulating myself on seeing something that nobody else had picked up.
3/10/2026: White House Cybersecurity Strategy Is Light on Details, Big on Consequences, PCMag
This three-page document posted at news-dump time on the previous Friday was so brief that I knew I’d have to get some outside perspectives on it, and two of the experts whom I’ve come to rely on obliged my belated requests for comment.
3/11/2026: T-Mobile’s MLB.TV Deal Is Back, Only Good for Watching Other Cities’ Teams, PCMag
I briefly hoped that this freebie would also come with a discount for the Nats’ long-overdue, MASN-liberated direct-to-consumer streaming option, but T-Mobile PR disabused me of that notion quickly.
3/14/2026: The Return to Real: Human Connection and the Analog Boom in the AI Era, Frontiers of Innovation Takeover
I took part in this panel hosted by this Vancouver, B.C.-based group at Canada’s SXSW setup with author and researcher Kasley Killam, a.Kartel founder and CEO Vy Lem, and Goodword co-founder Chris Fischer. My major contribution to the discussion: observing how healthy online communities spark IRL gatherings like my excuse to fly to L.A. last September, Cranky Dorkfest.

ESPN Is Now the Home of MLB.TV — Pricing, Plans & What Fans Need to Know
-
Fell asleep after 16 innings of the #WorldSeries game last night, figured I’d resume it this morning. #FuboTV stopped recording after 5 hours (12 innings), and #MLBtv just crashed when I tried to watch the official game broadcast in its archive. #YouTube’s 33-minute highlights package saves the day!
-
Only a few games today, but for the third day in a row MLB TV has all of them free to watch.
Anyone know what the occasion is as to why they're doing this?

Looks like all games are free on MLB TV today. Not sure why, but I'll take it!

There’s a heat wave coming to Milwaukee 👀🔥
Paul Skenes and Jacob Misiorowski face off at 2:10 PM ET. Watch for FREE on #MLBTV or on @[email protected].

Google Cloud are you proud of this? MLBTV doing an execrable overlay job with broadcasts.

Getting ready to watch the #Padres #Guardians game on #MLBTV. This Overture before the game is a bit repetitive. #SDPA

Happy Easter! March 31 also happens to be the date that many people observe as the International Transgender Day of Visibility, and because I strive not to be a bigot or a moron I can understand how the Biden administration would uphold the religious holiday that falls on varying dates and also recognize the human-rights-advocacy event with a fixed spot on the calendar (see, also, César Chávez Day) without my head exploding.
In addition to the posts below, Patreon readers got a peek at the traffic metrics that the platform now shares with me (spoiler alert, they show that I could be a lot more effective in promoting my page).
3/25/2024: T-Mobile Customers Get Yet Another Year of Free MLB.tv, PCMag
After almost a decade of covering the spotty availability of home-team baseball on streaming video, I needed very little time to write this post.
3/27/2024: Return-to-Work Is a Bigger Trend in Smaller Cities, Worth
This piece, on the other hand, took weeks to report out as I tried to chase down experts between the holidays and CES–with my last interview not happening until the Tuesday after I got home Vegas. In retrospect, I don’t know how I expected anything different with that kind of deadline.
3/29/2024, Sat-to-phone ambitions may need course corrections, Light Reading
I needed a few days after the previous week’s Satellite Show in D.C. closed to get some time on the phone with analyst Tim Farrar, who lent a skeptical perspective that I found a useful complement to the concerns I saw conference speakers voice at that event.
3/31/2024: These companies are automating dirty and dangerous work, Fast Company
This companion piece to my coverage of robotics firms for Fast Company’s Most Innovative Companies package unpacks how many of these enterprises are sending robots to places that might have seemed too dicey for expensive machines a few years ago.

Wow, an interesting new way to experience blackout games. MLB GameDay now lets you have access to live motion capture data including ball and player motion. A bit creepy, but surpsingly captivating. You can place the camera anywhere in the park. Worst issue, beyond the sort of oddity of the player animations, is that the data is about 30 seconds behind the radio feed. Still interesting.

For the first time in history, MLB.TV will stream a game in market. The Padres will be the only team, and you'll still have to pay for MLB.TV to get it, but blackouts will not be applied if you live in San Diego.

The stars will be out in LA this afternoon. 🤩

#MLBTV has always been an excellent service in all the options it presents. I love that this season they’ve added minor league games as well with no added charge. Still no games presented in 4K sadly. I know NESN presents all of their home games 4K for those that can take advantage.

I really do not know why I subscribe to #mlbtv while I constantly get stuff like this. This is not a cheap yearly subscription. Every time I want to watch a game, I'm unable. This is the last year I'm doing this. #MLB #WildCardGame

Watching the Orioles-Sox game on #MLBTV . So strange to see nobody there. Empty stadium. Wow.
