My point is that GP claimed no country would violate international law, when quite frankly that's not true. Hell, even India may have by launching Swarm's satellites without approval from Swarm's host country.
- username223 9y agoI don't think India really knew what it was doing: http://spacenews.com/industry-worried-about-regulatory-backlash-after-unauthorized-cubesat-launch/ http://spacenews.com/industry-worried-about-regulatory-backl... They apparently took a bundle of stuff from Spaceflight Industries, including the space junk from Swarm, and launched it without paying much attention to what it actually was. That seems to be no worse than inattention and maybe a bit of incompetence.
