fixing that stuff. companies also claim to be deeply concerned that independent repay i will lead to more hacking. and last but not least, chevy with pass code's damage companies, representations, sound like many points to you. well, we pat applicants have deemed these arguments baseless and argue the manufacturers are mainly worried, the repair ability. what is the depth ton of us? what is being done? in spite of big techs, extensive lobby inc, their actions being taken by governments. the european parliament has recently voted for rights to repair on the new law sellers, as well as manufacturers are obligated to offer free repass within the warranty periods in the west state of california and the electronics right to repair to us already passed. it guarantees everyone access the parts, tools and manuals needed to fix the electronic devices, the goal,

with, with uh, uh, x. another plan of is, seems to be working to establish a world spending satellite internet network called styling with this service provided by his company space, ex mosque and of grands or take away internet access to recently off at styling services to 8 organizations in gaza. and he provided people any wrong with internet . do we want a private invest the like markets to have that much power? here are some examples of what must us with his satellites, internet, or no internet for ukraine. the internet's plays a crucial role in the ukraine was military government. she went to terry and organizations and citizens have any depends on it. in 2022 ukrainian incidents and communication networks were compromised during the russian invasion. musk styling step in and provided ukraine with internet services ukrainians,

use the internet to defend themselves, but also to a tech russian positions. but when you create a new military, targeted russian forces outside your premium voters mosque disapproved and limited styling services in these regions. for this, you will strongly criticized by ukraine. you know, mosque seems to like getting involved in wells politics. the internet for 8 organizations in gaza just recently must created another controversy by offering stalling services to internationally recognized 8 organizations in gaza. in the wake of the terrorist attack by hum us classified by multiple countries as a terrorist organization. and as well as response telephone and internet blackouts isolate, since people in the gaza strip so far styling cabins, provide information on how they want to make sure. only 2 minutes here we and organizations access the services. israel considers must initiative a key approach,

palestine who free access to information in the wrong free internet via styling can compose the biggest threats for governments in all 3. terry and countries like iran. iran is heavily regulating domestic networks at times with complete internet shutdowns. but during the mess of civilian protests in 2022 styling positions about a 100 of this satellites over iran, making it very difficult for the government to control the flow of information. but why is set to light internet, how to control? so let's say you did as google search via satellite internet, your request would be beamed up into space. a satellite then receives the data and relays it back to us from where it can be sent to its intended recipients. in this case, a google search of the information then gets back to you the same way this way.

governments have little to no control over internet traffic because the traffic does not pass for any domestic communication infrastructure. so far, satellite internet was mostly pretty slow though. the traffic has to travel long distances. but with styling mosque has developed a new fleet of interconnected satellites, much closer to us. those are supposed to make connections much faster. is it fair for a private player to be able to brand or take away internet access? if anyone should have that sort of power, we'd love to hear your opinions. that's all for me today. by and see you next time . the
