They should kick his shit out of the country
Can't really do that when his shit is quite literally in space floating above your country in orbit.
They can easily make it illegal for them to operate there.
Welcome to the world where money has more power than laws and governments. It’ll all work out fine, I’m sure.
Yeah the Brazilian space police is gonna shoot down them satellites.
And then they will clean up the fueltas.
I love fairytales about competence in Brazil.
Like growing drugs? Good luck bro
Yeah they still rely on base stations to transmit/receive the signals.
It most probably can work directly with satellites, but I don't think some user is going to put the effort into setting up a direct system (∵ high cost), just to use the bloated site, X is (∵ low throughput internet).
His shit is also on the ground. Do you think the satellites beam an internet connection directly into a laptop or something? That said, finding and seizing the individual receivers seems unlikely. They've already instituted a hefty fine (equivalent to more a year's average salary) for even using a VPN to little effect.
Beyond that, they've also threatened to seize all local assets/offices and emplacements if Starlink doesn't comply. There's several dozen as I recall.
My sweet child, do you think cocaine just appears? No, they need massive farms to produce. Brazil can't even crack down on literal acres of fields of coca plants. You think they're going to find some inconspicuous boxes that receive internet from space?
Also do you think your router is just a plastic box with magic inside?
No, I don't think they're going to bother finding the receivers, which is what I said?
Reading comprehension: it's not for everybody.
I think it's you that needs to go back to this thread and actually use your eyes little girl
K.
You're so fucking sexy I just cannot contain myself.
The plastic box with plastic probably has a notable RF signal which can be traced?
The plastic box with plastic is made from plastic.
So?
Indeed.
Bunch of space junk fucking up the world's view of the stars.
Roundhouse kick then
