Unfortunately it's very easy for governments to make ownership of unblockable receivers illegal and to simply jam appropriate wavelengths on top of that. Just look at how radio was regulated after its invention.
Usually there is no proper technical solution for a political problem.
- baybal2 6y agoJamming, and radiolocating satellite terminals is not that easy. China for example been trying to crack down on vsat ownership for decades, to no avail
- fuoqi 6y agoYes, continuously jamming a whole country (even not a big one such as Belarus) is not feasible, and AESA terminals make this task even more difficult. But I meant that during critical events (such as massive protests) government can jam population centers by simply relying on an overwhelming power of jamming signal, thus making proper coordination significantly harder.
- petre 6y agoOne can still go to a radio silence area like on top of a mountain or uninhabited countryside. They would need a very strong sat based jammer.
