Funniest thing, Bluetooth is not really off, even after you disabled it. Mac will still ping other devices, report nearby AirTags and so on. This settings just disables UI notifications!

The only reliably way to disable Bluetooth on Mac is a shotgun and shovel!

Nuclear war is a bit more urgent threat.

In a few months US will have an anti-islamic version of Putin. He is the one who withdrew from treaties you linked.

> consideration to the harms done to non-combatants, both in the sense of "civilians" and "neutral countries".

Knocking down Starlink is perfect version of no-harms strike. Nobody dies, only person negative affected is Musk and some techno bros.

Why would Iran pay anything? If USA decides to launch unprovoked full scale invasion, they have a right to defend themselves!

And US army could not even conquer Afghanistan after 20 years. There is no way they would win.

OP claimed Russia has a Potenkin force, because it is not shiny enough. My point is their nukes and subs, are quite modern compared to US force.

With military technology, I did not meant US export controls, but other countries. Any weapon used by an enemy is a fair game.

What would happen if US went to war with Iran, and Iran would destroy Starlink constellation?

They already have rockets that reach such heights, and Kessler cascade effect would destroy all satellites on LEO!

Couple that with undersea optical cable disruption... We have global communication blackout!

I really feel we need stronger separation for military/non military infrastructure!

US nukes used floppy disks until very recently, but are quite functional.

Old civil GPS receivers had limitations that would prevent their use on ballistic missiles. Why Starlink does not have such limitations? It would be very easy to detect receiver is flying on some airplane. Such use should require special permissions and licencing!

I find it very hard to argue Starlink is not a military technology! At least its satellites are low, so debris wont stay on orbit forever!
