    Wonder if it's rapid speed enough to cut through all the massive frequencies already blazing thru the air. Didn't know you need a DISH? Haven't really delved into that particular service but we'll see I suppose how well it goes over. Quite an ambitious project at any rate. Thanks @ronjor for keeping up on it for us.

    Some Starlink customers have canceled their preorders, after paying a $100 deposit up to 9 months ago and receiving no contact from SpaceX

    Starlink gives mixed signals on whether some preorders are delayed until 2023
    SpaceX provides encouraging update, but preorderers still see 2023 delivery dates.

    "Elon Musk’s Starlink satellites hacked by $25 homemade device...

    A $25 hacking tool that can seemingly breach Starlink’s internet terminals has been revealed by a security researcher...

    Wouters has now found a way to hack into the dishes due to various hardware vulnerabilities. If left exposed, this would give threat actors free rein to access Starlink’s system and then run custom code on the network’s devices...

    Starlink was made aware of the security defects last year by Wouters himself, and even paid the researcher for his efforts via its bug bounty scheme.

    Even though parent company SpaceX patched the vulnerabilities at the time — prompting Wouters to modify the modchip — it seems the core issue cannot be resolved without a new model of the main chip being produced. As such, he stated that every user terminal associated with Starlink is currently exposed..."
