Each satellite is said to have ~20 gbit/s usable bandwidth, and they're launching tens of thousands of them. The answer should be "a lot"

They're definitely on the theater side of security. I've got locked out of my account multiple times for no reason.

Furious the second time, I sent a crafted image of an invalid ID to check if they actually even care. It seems they don't, as the account got unlocked all the same.

That doesen't seem like some fundamental restriction, but rather a compromise we're always willing to make. 30ms is not noticeable, so we don't try to lower it and sacrifice something else.

If you have to trust everyones routing to be correct to have a working internet, it doesen't seem trustless

I'd say it's bad design to have everything important in the open just because it's behind a firewall; it's got a huge blast radius when something goes wrong.

Securing your services regardless of where they are in the network should be go the go to
