Ask HN: What will be the impact of Starlink on China and North Korea?
Hey there HN!
My question is, do you think the people of countries such as China and North Korea will gain access to a un-censored internet after Starlink is launched?
Or, will the countries find a way to censor it with disruptors if some kind.
If they are not able to censor it, what kind of cultural shifts might occur?
Or, perhaps those folks would not have the tech to be able to use it?
Interested to hear your thoughts!
- badrabbit 8y agoYour question should include a link describing what starlink is for the uninitiated.
- tivert 8y agoNo. China regulates the importation of "radio transmitters, radio receivers, communication security equipments." Some will get though, but so few that it won't make a bigger impact than VPNs, etc. http://english.customs.gov.cn/Statics/88707c1e-aa4e-40ca-a968-bdbdbb565e4f.html http://english.customs.gov.cn/Statics/88707c1e-aa4e-40ca-a96...
