Carriers in the US are basically required to route 911 calls, even for devices not on their network - I wonder if that’ll include T-Mobile’s/Starlink announcement (since they’re going to be using existing 5G spectrum, I would presume so) - if I’m out in the wilderness and I experience an emergency, in theory, 911 should just work for me, piggybacking off a Starlink satellite, even if I’m a Verizon or AT&T or whatever subscriber - if that’s the case, I don’t see the need for all of these competing Emergency SOS via Satellite offerings.
