Listening in to a meeting of radio astronomers: direct-to-cell satellites are SO BRIGHT that even though they're following the rules and broadcasting in their allocated bands, they destroy astronomical observations across a huge swath of frequencies.

DEMs need to prepare legislation to protect every citizen's rights regarding the scanning of people's faces. See what Denmark is doing. IA techs will scream but so be it.
