- rad_gruchalski 7y agoI’m sure this would be happening in any country. Even USA. I’m not defending Turkey here though.
- journalctl 7y agoI just meant that unless customers were talking to satellites directly, presumably there would still be a Turkish ISP in the middle that would be able to route Facebook et al into the æther. But maybe I’m misunderstanding how Starlink works.
