Thanks to Zak Doffman a contributor about security, surveillance and privacy at Forbes for the Headline
I think this headline is very effective not in just telling the story of the shutting down of Communications in Iran , but also in portraying the danger that the protesters are in by actually just saying that they are unhappy with the situation in Iran. “Kill Switch” meant to me not just blocking the satellite communications with Starlink, but also taking revenge on those that are using it.
Will the authorities manage to block the people with the illegal devices that can track the satellites and transmit communications with them? So far they have managed to block about 80% of the traffic, however at a cost to themselves in Iran’s Economic Performance. It seems that the Economy needs a decent Internet Communication to function. So the Iranian Authorities are indeed not just repressing their people , they are also shooting themselves in the foot at the same time.
Namaste and Thank You for Reading.🙏
