(Starlink, for example, and other satellites and communications networks) during conflict.
In 2024, we expect to see evidence of sophisticated state-sponsored cyber actors’ full
spectrum Computer Network Exploitation capabilities to compromise space-based and
associated ground support infrastructure and communications channels to interdict, disrupt,
deny, degrade, destroy, or deceive an adversary—as well as to conduct espionage"

"A week after shutting down the internet for the second time in two months, the Senegalese government is arresting people selling Starlink in the country for “illegal provision of internet access and irregular marketing”.

On Monday, the Senegalese government arrested five people for selling Starlink terminals without the required licence or authorisation. The five people arrested by the Department of Urban Security of the National Police face up to five years imprisonment and a fine of 60 million CFA ($100,000). The telecommunications regulatory authority has also issued a warning for any service providers marketing Starlink and any other company with similar activities to immediately cease all service throughout the country."
