The British, on the other hand, have a competing satellite network, OneWeb, which is the principal competitor of, and doing a rather poor job of competing with Starlink.
I don't feel a burning need to go look to a British newspaper for advice as to whether-or-not to use an American satellite network versus a British satellite network.
If you guys across the pond want to use OneWeb instead, knock yourselves out.
EDIT: And speaking of national security, the last time we were relying on a British global network for intercontinental communications, we wound up with British intelligence spying on our diplomatic communications channels. Thanks, but I'm pretty comfortable using an American network.
Yup, but in a British newspaper.
The Brits have pretty adverse interests on this matter. I think that American communications security is a debate that doesn't need to involve the British, can be done perfectly fine among ourselves.
EDIT: I'd also add that Reich isn't the guy to raise the matter either; it's not his area of expertise. If, say, the NSA or friends raise it as an issue -- we pay a large number of full-time domain experts to secure our communications -- then I think that'd be an interesting topic.
Do you really need to be an expert to see a problem with Musk's Russian sympathies?
or with letting single billionaire control this much infrastructure
