Disabling/destroying a satellite has only been shown to be feasible by a handful of militaries in the world in very controlled situations.

Unless you mean you disable it via commands to the satellite, but that assumes there is a way to disable it and that you know who can disable it and can force them to do so.

Yeah, that was my point. Like all technology it has potential to liberate communications, but also enable bad actors. However, to me, it’s the biggest reason why this technology would matter at all.

I feel like on part no one ever mentions on things like this are, how do you enforce any jurisdiction on a satellite and what it’s doing.

The main crazy thing about a satellite data enter is you can’t confiscate it and therefore you can’t control it. Hell once it’s up there the only thing any government might be able to do is find the owner and force them to crash it (if possible).

It in a sense sounds a bit like the wild west of the original internet. Admittedly Musk being at the forefront of it all sounds terrible, but I think there is something fascinating about an information hub that could be completely independent of any country.
