USA just switched off starlink in Ukraine. They blocked Microsoft accounts and visa cards from ICC members. You can’t rely on USA tech. It’s got a killswitch and a madman ready to push the button.
Iris2 can’t go online early enough. There is Govsatcom now at least, as a crutch, to bridge the time until the basic Iris2 service can begin in 2030.
Just imagine Europe would have listened to the strong SpaceX fan crowd that called Ariane 6 a waste of money, because it costs some millions more per launch.
And can you remember the storm against Galileo when the crowd called it an epic waste of money (the domestic Putin front does to this day for mysterious reasons), when already have the US military run GPS?
Diversification helps here. Being able to switch service providers easy and quickly is best for users.
At the moment it’s good for Europeans to focus on domestic services, but in the long run our laws and governments may also turn more oppressive, so having many different reliable alternatives is the recipe for a free and empowered society.

Should have put Geet Wilders in that image as well.
*Vote as far left as possible in the Democrat primaries too or it’s all for nothing.
4 months too late my man
Democrats there are of the same capital class though.
You have to start shifting the Overton Window from somewhere.
So tired of this tankie shit
It’s true, but try this:
