Then the rest of the world just carries on as normal as do the dongle brigade and them using satellites like they do in remote uninhabited parts of the UK i.e. London!!!!!!!!
The Chinese tried to do the same with the "RED WALL" but failed miserably.
Russia I believe monkey's round occasionally too.

I'm thinking that although countries may have a local kill switch, total knock out?
I'd like to think no BUT you never know.

Good point Paul, but if goverment has control of hard wired connections, its a pretty safe bet taht they have full control of all satalite activities. Maybe not our own giovernment but a government somewhere will have a control switch that they can activate on comms satalites launched from their juristictions..

Much in the same way as sat nav can be knocked out or misaligned by TPTB whenever they want.
