:beanz: (nprofile…5khk) I was curious about that weird claim of Starlink and election machines, I wonder if someone with access to one could potentially do a man in the middle attack, but, would they be able to scan the packets beforehand (assuming they don't know where the many machines are) and then perform a packet switching, a man in the middle attack, etc etc.
But more curious, that weird claim of Starlink made no sense, and yeah, it's obvious nonsense it seems. Even Snopes is calling bullshit
