Can I text a non-observant Jew living in a different time zone, when it is still Shabbos for them? I know there is a high likelihood he will read the text on Shabbos and reply - is there any halachic issue for me to send it and communicate with him?

4At the very least, you would likely be transgressing "lifnei iver" - placing a stumbling block before a blind person- due to the fact that your text is leading him to desecrate the Shabbos by reading it. – Esther Jun 07 '20 at 05:08
