It’s hard to predict the outcome in such a chaotic event but starlink alone already does 100k+ collision avoidance maneuvers each year (can’t remember the exact number but is more than one every 2 minutes). It’s highly unlikely that we would be able to accurately track the newly formed debris of dozens of satellites blowing up and adjust the orbit of (potentially) hundreds of satellites in a few minutes.

Destroying a few dozen satellites would probably kickstart a Kessler síndrome.

Nah, I think their biggest con is making people believe this exact discourse right here, don’t change their habits and keeping giving them money.

They are psychos that can care less about being blamed for this or that when they can simply keep bribing governments and never facing any consequences.

But they have real fear that people start being more conscious about their own consuming and stop giving them money.
