- Proven 7y agoPoor imagination. Why would they do that when they can simply make the sale and ownership of antennas illegal.
- atemerev 7y agoI am Russian who knows some Soviet history. Here’s what they are going to do: 1) ban all satellite-connecting equipment, unless you have government-issued license for that; 2) if it fails, they will jam satellite links, at least in large cities; 3) if _that_ fails (and also some show trials of people caught with satellite modems, to send the message to the others), yes, they will shoot down satellites.
