Huh, for some reason, I thought that the FCC would fine and regulate this company into oblivion after their unauthorized launch stunt. Looks like that didn't quite happen the way I expected.
Same, it's weird that this hasn't already been mentioned. They launched untrackable trash into space and got fined for it, nobody should trust this company.
It drives me up a wall that they got off basically consequence-free for that--I'm guess they probably made up the fine in reduced time cost spent on authorization proceedings anyway. "Move fast and break things" isn't a great motto anyway, but it's especially bad when those things are floating around in orbit.
