You can absolutely mention brands and even link to product pages. If you're going to use an affiliate link, it is common courtesy to disclose that. I'm interested in having a USB-C powered screen as a second monitor for my MacBook

Doesn't Motorola have location tracking systems which integrate or add-on to their radio systems? I know we used to have this on some of our VHF radios. You could also look at using APRS for location tracking... Edit: Also - you should

The Garmin inReach[0] line of satellite communicators are another example of a 3rd party Iridium partnership. Given the size/form factor, I wonder if they're using more custom hardware than just an off-the-shelf module for their i

Yes, they can do it - my parents have Hughes satellite internet. I've been able to do multi-person video calls from their house. It's pretty low bandwidth though 40Mbps or so claimed I think and something like 50Gb/Month data

My ex's step father always said, "Well, if Al Gore invented the internet, I paid for it." Which, as the senior official at DARPA who authorized funding for the project, he kinda did. ;)
