SpaceX isn't an Uber model, its a goverment leech model. It's had heavily, heavily goverment subsidies to the tune of 18 billion dollars over its 10yr lifetime.
Terminal prices are likely just an economy of scale issue. Much cheaper per unit to make 100,000 than 1,000. Im sure as eutelsat grows the prices will come down.
If Eutelsat and the EU rocket program get 18 billion in goverment investment like SpaceX, im betting they can also accelerate all of the above.
SpaceX doesnt have a moat, it just has the lead. Rocket labs in new Zealand is already hot on their tails. No reason the EU cant join or surpass them.
Not if you bought in at 100% or 200% or 300% when it was also in the news. You will still have made tons and tons of money.

There are for sure idiots in infosec, but when your job is working to close holes and gaps, it gets pretty easy to learn what to "forget" about if you want to cause devastation in a deniable way. There are so, so many ways to fuck this job up, doing it on purpose would be a cake walk.
In the US, they are always cops, on duty or off. That's why lots of places like hiring them for security. They can instantly arrest people, justified or not, and can often carry a gun where other people are not allowed to.
We have nothing resembling actual enforcement of law here.
Bashir himself did nothing wrong, but if you let genetic engineering go, you end up with brutal ubermensch and civil war. They know this first hand, as it happened to them.
They have to level action against him and his family, to prevent the mass death that their actions lead to.
Looks like the podcast episode isnt available right now, but Jason Mantzoukas has a deadly egg allergy. He talked about what a nightmare it is to live with because eggs are so ubiquitous.
