Do you? You seem to fail to realize what a data link is and that different data can be stuffed in to the generic parts, you fucking numpty.
Do you think StarLink cannot send generic data? Do you think it inspects everything it sends to make sure it's not encrypted? Or does it just route and send the data. You have no fucking clue what you're even trying to retort.
Russia already has the ability to do everything Starlink provides, the difference is it is a bit more convenient. So saying something like this:
Is weird and acting like Starlink is some kind of cold-war superweapon that we have to keep from Russia makes no sense.
No, it makes perfect sense to say, "someone gaining billions over here should not be allowed to profit from helping the enemy."
Why is the concept of treason so fucking hard for people to understand?! "You mad someone's helping a horrible person doing horrible things?" ... YES!!! Why the FUCK aren't you?!
