Re: FCC??

It's the FCC's business because it's a licensed service.
Back in the day Radio Free Europe broadcast to Iron Curtain countries. I am sure they had no licence to do so. What if our good friends the Ruskies or the Yellow Hoard decide to broadcast from space. Will they need a FCC licence?

 Actually, Radio Free Europe used leased stations from the countries they operated in, or used US-based shortwave transmitters under agreements with the IFRB.

As for the Ruskies, yeah, that's a viable argument. But even if you are serious, satellite signals are trivial to block by interference. That's why the FCC is involved in the first place...spectrum management.
