Instill fear and desperation with a scenario that makes you look powerless against it, and then serve the solution.
Man, it's text book hegelian dialectic.
Problem, reaction, solution, seems we knew about that trick long before the current itineration of mass media delusions came around.
Perfectly illustrated

Just what we need, tons of lights cluttering up the night sky. Technology will be the downfall of this current civilization. Humankind is so full of hubris.
What do satellites in the night sky have to do with hubris or the downfall of civilization? There have been thousands of satellites up there for decades now. I can understand if you "don't like" them on principle, but I doubt they have negatively influenced your life. If anything, they have enhanced civilization, from GPS to weather forecasting. You wouldn't have any of that without satellites.
Enhanced civilization... hmm i guess.. but is civilization a good thing for evolution, regarding our species?
I would not be surprised if we already have cut out our wings, there is a chance we have ruined our genome, even at our present state, we are more like a walking bag of toxic waste, than a thriving animal.
But at least we can watch the weather forecast instead of sniffing some dirty air and looking outside.

Am I correct in assuming as more and more populate the Earth's low orbit the potential to use this as weapon also increases?
Does anyone believe that Starlink could not possibly be used as a frequency based weapon?
