while tourists face high costs and limited, slow connectivity.


He was a tourist who paid the cost for Starlink and his connectivity was just fine, a-hole.

Did you even read your own post?

Because streaming data is prohibited because it inhibits/restricts data usage by the scientific research stations there.


Good to know. Maybe Elon will increase the number of satellites over antarctica to improve connectivity.

These are 2 photos I took outside the Ukrainian research station in Antarctica.


Aw hell. An entirely new Conspiracy Theory now.

WTF does Ukraine have a station in Antarctica?

That is like Uzbekistan wanting to go to Antarctica. But why?

His connectivity being "just fine" may have affected the connectivity of scientific researchers in the area, a-hole.

Since alisa refuses to answer my question above I'll ask you: why are you so upset the guy's live streaming was denied and why do you believe the guy's live streaming was prohibited?

I was wondering how long it was going to be before some Vlogger or internet YouTuber did something like this.

Well, I was there before Russia invaded Ukraine in 2022 so I don't know if it's still there.

But Ukraine has an active scientific community so my guess is they wanted to do research there just like other countries want to do.

Many of the scientific achievements and "firsts" claimed by Russia were actually accomplished by Ukrainian scientists while they were part of the Societ Union.

ETA: Plus, they probably wanted to build a full-service bar that they could claim is the southernmost bar in the world. They make their own vodka there and sell it for $10/shot. I drank 1 shot.

Why would they confiscate his camera? I’m not familiar with any rules in Antarctica

Look up satellite images of Antarctica for a while. Just look around. A lot of repeating whiffs of cloud, perfectly recurring squares of terrain, inexplicable "desolate" spaces where it doesn't make sense.

I don't pretend to know which theory about Antarctica is correct, but the world powers are ALL hiding something there. And it's the one thing that, from all appearances, they all agree upon... that they must cooperate in keeping it hidden.

Actually, I'm not that upset. I just called you an a-hole because you didin't read your own ChatGPT response.

Not sure, but this:

isn't a thing. He had his own Starlink.

If I had to guess, I'd say he was probably filming something sensitive. It was certainly something they don't want filmed. I am now interested to know why you can't film in Antarctica.
