No satellite services for Starlink because they are “too white”?

ByAfriForum 09/09/202409/09/2024

Say no to the Independent Communications Authority of South Africa (ICASA’s) race obsession, which is blocking Starlink in South Africa.

AfriForum submitted written commentary to ICASA, requesting the authority to abandon its strict race-based criteria. These criteria hinder the granting of a South African licence to the satellite network Starlink.

The improved communications ability that Starlink will be offering in South Africa will make a major contribution to preventing crime and improving crime reaction times, especially in rural areas where cell phone reception is often unreliable or completely absent.

By prohibiting Starlink from operating in South Africa because of racist criteria, ICASA is depriving rural communities of a reliable alternative that may save lives.

Stop the racism and fight together with AfriForum:
