Swedish startup unveils Starlink alternative — that Musk can’t switch off

Swedish startup TERASi has unveiled a new pocket-sized Starlink alternative called the RU1, which promises secure military communications that cannot be interfered with by billionaire CEOs. The RU1 is described as the world's smallest and lightest mm-Wave radio, offering high-speed and high-bandwidth connectivity. The device can be deployed quickly to keep units connected in fast-changing environments and can be installed on tripods or drones. Multiple RU1s can be linked to create a mesh network. The system is designed to provide a secure alternative to Starlink, which could potentially be shut off by Elon Musk, the CEO of SpaceX, which operates Starlink. The RU1 is seen as a promising solution for military and other critical communications that need to be protected from potential interference.
