There’s been pirates on FLTSATCOM for decades. That’s what you get when you launch a bunch of satellites that repeat anything with no authentication though.
repeat anything with no authentication
oops 🤣
Serious William Gibson cyberpunk type shit right here. Hack a TV satellite and broadcast your “deprogramming” video out, Lo-Tek style.
The real irony is that TV is largely dying and the whole notion of “hacking a broadcast” is almost quaint.
In a sense what they’re describing here sort of already happened almost 40 years ago from Captain Midnight knocking HBO off-air.
