Default Anyone still use packet radio?


When/If all comms is via satellite, then that will give a target/one
place of insecurity in comms.


Exactly. Didn't China just show that it can shoot down satellites?
I'm sure the US and Russia can, and possibly the EU as well.



... more likely serious solar disaster.... solar flairs, etc, could
knock out satellites.
