- abdullahkhalids 2y agoThe purpose of banning VPNs is repressing political opponents. The police doesn't have to go around finding people who use VPNs. It's just that when the police arrest someone at a protest or for some trumped up charge, and the police also finds a VPN on the person's phone or computer, it is an easy charge to tack on - one that is certain to get punishment.
- sneak 2y agoStarlink has to comply with local laws in places it is sold. It’s like any other business.
- protocolture 2y agoStarlink always complies with all ISP laws in every country. Its not some magic anti censorship button. Shit mostly it exits a country via ground stations in that country or a compatible legal jurisdiction. Its not even magically flying out of the country via satellite. + Discussions about its ability to skirt censorship in this fashion with any significant capacity sort of paint it as a bad move, maybe that starlink 2.0 nonsense.
