And the kawaida jamming we have seen with satellite tv won't be as effective given the sheer no. of satellites. Altho countries like China will use other leverage and will force starlink not to transmit shit above their country

Remember the days when a private citizen couldn’t possess VSAT equipment?
this constellation thing might just be a mirror or an experiment of some space communication neural network, but yes even china has realized they cant afford to be left behind in this race.
It will be interesting to see the kind of technological warfare that will unfold, there must be a reason China is hellbent on having their own space station, but it will be hard to counter a swarm of low earth satellites, that might just have a life of their own, but an interesting battle nonetheless.
