Latin to English translations [PRO]
Telecom(munications) / selling pitch
Latin term or phrase: Nam liber tempor cum soluta nobis
It is the selling pitch in a telecomm document related to the scope licenses should have, in order to reach more users. The sentence appears out of context, under a caption showing a map.

They don't generally make much/any sense.

it just shows where text needs to be inserted

I encounter these a lot when editing unfinished brochures, advertising material etc. Mostly looks like Latin.
