Looks like most/all manufacturing happens in the SEA/China, so I can see the logic that it could be considered a military risk for it to not be manufactured/possibility to scale manufacturing in America.
I have a friend who does not live that remote in Australia and his choice is either "satellite" internet or starlink.
It's not even a choice because "skymuster" (the satellite option) can't even be considered internet. I remember him taking about getting 7 seconds of latency at one point. It's actually impressive how terrible it is.
Actually op, can you clarify if you did this with the below setting on? There is a literal setting to stop this so I'm curious if this was created because of this report or if this is just negligence from the reporter to not add this as a comment.
We had a security report for a oauth vuln and it was the worst thing I have ever read, the whole thing is like spaghetti that "just works" until it doesn't because you feed it something similar.
But you bet my ass I check everytime to have a look at see how that pelican looks, it's just a fun check and also interesting to see the cost/results.
