SpaceX's highly paid lawyers responded to the hundreds of comments and oppositions submitted to the FCC in one letter, that basically shows they didn't actually read our petitions to deny. And now we astronomers and dark sky advocates who are volunteering our time have to do a shitload more work to respond to their non-response. By Friday.
Fuck you, SpaceX.
Are there any lawyers among the group of satellite-sanity volunteers? I'm wondering if a gofundme or other campaign might raise enough donations to support someone who can go after the coming constellation of constellation proposals, using well-targeted legal arguments, as opposed to substantive, scientific or cultural arguments (which don't seem to impress the regulatory nonregulators).
