“With the commies in office, where do you suppose it will be used?”

Exactly right.

I don’t believe sundance was as interested in who manufactured the payloads as much as how the US Intelligence Agencies dropped 1.8 billion dollars in Elon’s pocket less than a year before the Twitter deal.

“more like the slowdown is the starlink sts have gone out of range..”

I first thought it was overloaded bandwidth but there is no normal load patterns such as evenings or weekends. The pattern has settled on association with keywords and topics.

I have suspected for sometime now that Musk is playing good cop/bad cop with us.

Strange he only spent a couple days at Stanford before quiting and rocketing to the top. I think he was recruited into the deep state.

“maybe a vpn will help.”

I am purposely testing the integrity and privacy of the system. I can’t do that if I hide my use.

Yep.

And you could say the same thing about all the supposed boy geniuses. More and more it looks as if the intelligence agencies were using individuals as their public face to insinuate surveillance technology into the marketplace.

We’re voluntarily acquiring the very items the government needs to control us.
