Radiant Mobile, self-described as “the first-ever Christian mobile carrier,” launched in the US this month, pioneering a new type of phone network that blocks certain content for its users.

Marketed specifically to Christians, Radiant offers age-based content filtering to block access to websites that could be deemed harmful.

Through cybersecurity company, Allot, Radiant organises website domains into 120 categories, some of which are “hard blocked” for anyone using the network, while others are only “blocked”, meaning they can be managed by parents.
