How would Starlink (the Ka band service) interfere with GSM frequencies?
Or is that about the new "direct to cell" product? Is that even being launched near Kenya (presumably it'd not emit anything over areas it does not have a license in)?
- RicoElectrico 2y agoObviously it doesn't, but government officials everywhere are technically inept by default. It's a FUD.
- m463 2y agoWell, it may interferes with the frequency of billing.
- M_bara 2y agoPrecisely,Safaricom also alleged that they would allow for illegal connections… perhaps they meant connections that we can’t easily wiretap on behalf of the government. Interestingly, during the protests a few months ago, the government severely throttled all external connections by putting a few interfaces down at the fibre sea landing points. Only Starlink users were getting good connectivity. A lot of folks migrated at that point.
