New Christian Based Cellphone Network Radiant Mobile will Block LGBTQ+ Content from Users

A Christian faith-based cell phone network will automatically block LGBTQ+ content and more!

Radiant Mobile, launched earlier this week and touted as “The First Ever Christian Mobile Carrier”, will integrate cybersecurity firm Allot into their network, where it will organize web addresses into more than 100 categories, blocking explicit adult content, LGBTQ+ and transgender-related content, sexuality and gender-identity material, Satanism and cult-related content, etc.

“We are going to create—and we think we have every right to do so—an environment that is Jesus-centric, that is void of pornography, void of LGBT, void of trans,” Radiant Mobile founder Paul Fisher told MIT Technology Review.

While positioning themselves as a “Christian” alternative to the major phone carriers, they appear relegated to T-Mobile’s leftovers — relying on its cell towers and leasing bandwidth from the company, much like President Trump’s “Trump Mobile” service launched last year.

A T-Mobile spokesperson declined to say whether the restrictions violate company policy and said T-Mobile works with Radiant indirectly through MVNO manager CompaxDigital.

Of course, Radiant relying on T-Mobile’s towers is somewhat ironic given T-Mobile’s long-standing public support for the LGBTQ+ community, including $1.25 million in donations to initiatives backed by the Human Rights Campaign Foundation and GLSEN.

The mobile service sector is a far cry from Fisher’s earlier career ambitions. He previously worked as a media executive and modeling agent, representing supermodels such as Naomi Campbell.

His reputation and position in the industry led him to a short stint on the 2012 CW reality series “Remodeled,” where he was frequently shown berating small-town agency staffers and aspiring models, some of whom were reportedly recruited from homeless shelters and rehabilitation centers.

When questioned about his former career, Fisher said, “Am I proud that I spent 35 years creating star models or star influencers? Not at all,”

He may not be recruiting “models or star influencers” in the entertainment industry these days, but Radiant seemingly is.

Radiant’s official website says it is seeking to build a dedicated team of influencers to promote its services, encouraging them to “turn your influence into income that honors your faith.”

The company claims top participants can earn between $10,000 and $20,000 or more annually, and frames the initiative not just as a business opportunity, but as a mission aimed at “building and protecting the Kingdom.”

In addition to recruiting influencers, the company is targeting Christian churches directly, focusing on pastors through its “Pastor Partnership Program.” The initiative offers pastors the option to try Radiant Mobile free for 60 days and continue receiving complimentary service by promoting the platform to their congregations. The company says it will donate 5% of each participating member’s monthly subscription fees to the church.

The launch of the service comes amid the Trump administration’s alignment with evangelical Christian causes and continued criticism of transgender rights — a topic that Radiant Mobile says its platform is designed to restrict.

As of now, Radiant Mobile is only available in the United States, but Fisher said he wants to take the company worldwide, aiming to expand into foreign markets such as Mexico and South Korea, which have sizable Christian populations.
