Starlink Nanonymous No.4556 [D][U][F][S][L][A][C]

ignoring all the other times Elon Musk's promises failed and were forgotten. He claimed that Starlink would have no cost other than the device that connects to it. Although it is counter intuitive for something to not be capitalized on immediately, I don't see how it can easily identify someone and if they are paying for the service without slowing down the system severely. Prove me wrong.

Wouldn't it just need to use some sort of secure IC to seed encryption used for authentication?

Thought about it seconds after posting. Same thing they use for cable.

Wouldn't worry about it, this can be about Starlink in general. It's probably a good thing you brought it up because I haven't really looked into it yet and did not actually know it was being deployed.

The only thing that I've heard about it in the mainstream was that certain people were worried that it would cause space clutter or something like that.
