  • Vodacom inks Starlink deal to boost satellite backhaul and rural connectivity in Africa
    November 14, 2025, 2:52 AM EST. Vodacom Group has struck a satellite broadband deal with Starlink to bring low-latency internet to Africa's businesses and expand rural connectivity.

Starlink operates with roughly 8,900 satellites and serves 25 African markets; Vodacom will also resell Starlink's services to enterprise customers. CEO Shameel Joosub says the partnership helps bridge the digital divide, while Vodacom will continue working with other providers like AST SpaceMobile and Amazon Kuiper. No launch date was disclosed; regulatory approvals are still pending. The deal adds to Starlink's telco footprint, following ties with T-Mobile and Virgin Media O2.

  • Tesla Superchargers Live Availability Now on Google Maps
    November 14, 2025, 2:44 AM EST. Tesla has expanded real-time visibility of its Supercharger network by integrating live availability into Google Maps. When users tap a station, the map now shows total stalls, free stalls, and peak power, mirroring similar real-time charger data seen from Electrify America earlier this year. While Tesla owners can already rely on in-car navigation and the Tesla app for live status, the Google Maps feature targets non-Tesla EV drivers and broadens the network's accessibility. Looking ahead, Tesla's Max de Zegher suggests expanding this integration with features like real-time wait times, forecasted availability, and dynamic rerouting based on demand. Achieving this will likely require closer partnerships and potential reciprocal data sharing between charging networks and navigation providers.
