What clever h8ckers! How pathetic that the US government can't secure their satellites. /Does not make me proud to be an American! Sad

The government doesn't exist and the relevant individuals don't have the incentives necessary to keep them secure apparently, not surprising to me.

You can also use amateur radio satellite or HF-radio transmitter

You think if a country censors the internet they're going to allow you to own the sort of hardware you need to use those birds?

Depending on where you live, or mainly, how your house is (if it has a closed yard, if it is on a rural area etc) they cannot easily control that. It's an antenna not that big, you can hide.

Maybe not. But what about the innocuous components one might need to build the sort of hardware you need to use those birds?

Has any agorist geek, expert on networks, ever tried to study the possibility of passing data channels through these easily hijack-ables US military satellites?

I doubt it would allow for a good bandwith, it and the simple fact that is satellite probably impose a significant lag. But, anyway, if it works, it could be a feasible option to those under the Great Firewall of China for example.

Somebody could come out with an open protocol to allow the routing from this pirate-satellite-network to the Internet. Bitcoins could be used to pay for the routing service.

It would be interesting if possible.
