I wasn't aware there was a tread on the satellite patch on hn, but seeing how it was featured on Ars Technica, I'm not surprised:

The second link is based on a book from 2007 that used FOIA requests to be able to study the patches, so part of the point is that it's nothing new...

Anyway, I don't fall into the camp that takes the patches very seriously -- in general, anything a covert organization/project projects about itself is bound to be either propaganda or misinformation.
