    “Blocks” is hyperbolic, but it’s definitely going to add friction to the process. The screen is small (although apparently a touchscreen), the keyboard is T9.

      Commodore’s patent-pending technology blocks social media

      Certainly feels like they’re claiming more than just journalistic hyperbole

        Huh. Guess I wasn’t paying attention.

        Commodore’s patent-pending technology blocks social media platforms and internet browsers at the system level.

        An optional feature apparently.

        If a web browser can charge you an extra $60 to offer you not AI or cryptocurrency wallets, then maybe Commodore can charge you an extra $400 (vs a similar KaiOS phone) to offer you not a web browser.
