It's ok. I'm already terrified.

All's fair in love and war.
Is it viable?
If your opponent's use of the LEO space and satelites is more effective, more critical and beneficial to their operations than yours by a wide enough degree, then yes, scortched space is viable.
I'm not fully boycotting them, but they are my grocer of last resort. My #1 is a local ethnic grocer with 3 locations. #2 are local bakeries and independants. #3 are sobeys/metro owned and last is Weston.
I'm blessed with options.
Insurance won't cover $5M in City of Hamilton claims for cyberattack, citing lack of log-in security
There are many unpleasant IT costcutting conversations to have.
I thought it was denial of capacity. Satellites loaded with small ball bearings wrapped around high explosives to not only destroy satellites in a short term low orbit version of kessler syndrome, but to keep LEO full of satellite destroying shit for a while to deny relaunching new satellites.
A 500km orbit like Starlink means unassisted objects can stay up for almost 10 years. Long enough for war, short enough to not permanently damage space.
Doing the right thing is always de-rigeur. Fuck Trump and Fuck the US.
Because we forgot how effective public lynchings can be.
Elbows up!
You don't need to try and fuck them. They are doing that to themselves with more skill, urgency and depth of consequence than anything we can come up with. Just watch with wonder and amazement as America descends into irrelevance then obscurity.
Let's make Canada West mass market baby! Finest boots I've ever bought and worth every penny. Shame they aren't easy to find retailers, but I'll always go out of my way to find them.
As for making our own capacitors, resistors, transistors etc... It makes no sense to build everything within your country. It is important to have a diversity globally so supply chains can be resilient, especially in light of a growing deglobalization trend.
It's where I go to cry when it's not raining. :(
