Isn’t it fucking weird that we are using a privately owned satellite network to run our military’s internet rather than a network entirely in our control?

US military already controls all GPS satellites for military operations. For that reason, EU has its own Galileo system, Russia has Glonass and China has Beidou.
While this would be for non-operational stuff only, it’s still a bad look and reason to look into finances of people making this decision.
