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.

I’m sitting out SXSW
The second weekend of this March will not treat me to a few things that have been constants in my late-winter business travel since 2012: a taco- and BBQ-centric diet, the squawks of grackles, panel FOMO, and sore feet from walking up and down the streets of Austin.
I’m breaking that streak of covering SXSW in person (including moderating panels at this conference in 2012 and 2019) not because I’m tired of that event or its excesses but because of other events.
One is MWC Barcelona, which this year takes place a week later than in previous years. That scheduling means I’d either spend barely half a day at home between returning from Spain and flying out to Austin–or I’d have to fly from Barcelona to Austin, resulting in 12 days in a row away from my family.
The other is HumanX, a new AI conference in Las Vegas that runs from March 9 to 13–overlapping half of SXSW–and whose organizers saw fit to invite me to moderate a few panels there. As much as I vastly prefer Austin to Vegas, comped travel beats paying my own way, especially when that involves SXSW-inflated lodging expenses. So that officially shut the door on my going to Marketing Spring Break.
The final plot twist to my late-winter schedule came with the Web Summit people asking if I’d like to speak at Web Summit Qatar. I had passed on that last year because this new addition to their conference lineup overlapped with MWC, but this time it happens the week before. And since I’d heard good things about last year’s event and was curious to see that part of the Middle East, I’m off to Doha in a week and change.
The catch here is that because Web Summit Qatar itself ends only two days before the first MWC pre-conference events start, I’d have little more than a day at home between crossing the Atlantic westbound and then flying back across it eastbound. Instead of that overdose of jet lag, I will spend 12 days in a row away from my wife and our kid–but not entirely away from family, since I’ll stay with my wife’s sister and her family in London for those between-conference days. I know I’ll appreciate that chance to reconnect with a part of my non-work life, even if it comes with elevated odds of my stepping on a Lego.
