#13Has a pentest been performed on this network? How does one enter into an early beta of it?
They just launched the first couple satillites. Its all internal testing on non-finished hardware as of right now. Far away from an beta.

#14I'm really excited about this technology for selfish reasons. I love disconnecting and spending time in remote wildernesses. But paradoxically, being disconnected from technology gives me a lot of anxiety about technology. Working on devops roles over the last decade, I've almost never had a time when I can just forget about it all. Even when I'm not on call, and no matter how well I try to document things, I'm often…

I guess high frequency traders might be interested too then.

Why not just use any of the number of existing satellite telecoms providers?
