Koodo is completely censoring my SMS messages!! This was in  Sept 2024.
I confirmed this by trying to send the message from one Koodo to another; both directions. WTF!!

Phone 1 (Linux OS): So I know the OS is not blocking the SMS.
Phone 2 (Android OS) Normal google based OS
Here’s what I sent:

Try 1, 2, 5, 6

Try 3, 7

Hardware Unconference

https://lu.ma/3xdktv2i

Try 4. (not blocked)

Test

Try 8.

Hardware Unconference_https://lu.ma/3xdktv2i

Try 9.

Hardware Unconference
//lu.ma/3xdktv2i

Try 10.

“Hardware Unconference
https://lu.ma/3xdktv2i

Then I tried to send from the other phone. Also blocked!!

Why, or why is Koodo blocking perfectly valid links??? Not impressed!

What else does Koodo censor?

Literally just sent your exact link to myself over koodo's network, so they're definitely not blocking links, or even your specific link as a general rule. They do use anti spam software on their network though, so if you routinely send a large number of text messages that only contain links perhaps you've been flagged as a spammer?
