Edmund Kudzayi: "Zimbabwe may in fact be safer with StarLink as satellite transmission protocols would require markedly more advanced capabilities to hijack compared to today's plug-and-play interception of undersea cables. Without a demonstrable technical case, objections to StarLink ring disingenuous given existing vulnerabilities.
