Yes, that is true, but I am willing to bet you a Coke that the programmers probably never heard of that and named it after that awful movie “Snakes on a Plane”.

Vessels are using Starlink, I am sure they get away with it since most of those cruiseline vessels are under a foreign flag.

And that they know people are driving down the road in their campers and getting the internet and they should police this. I guess they can go after one web now too unless they don’t have control of vehicles over 10,000 feet. I am not sure why the tv company would care, but I assume somewhere it is about dollars and cents. Ah, here it is. Read for you self as I am a fast and poor reader and may have gotten something wrong.
