Imagine losing a carrier cuz one of the soldiers forgot to read the privacy notice on their smartwatch
Imagine losing a carrier because a major world power’s military IT security is so incompetent they’re allowing sailors on active deployment to have unfettered internet access.
There was a similar incident where they found a sailor on
one US Navy ship had their own Starlink terminal because they were broadcasting an SSID. At the end of the day, you can’t fix stupid.

After seeing Wi-Fi network named “STINKY,” Navy found hidden Starlink dish on US warship
To be fair, it's hard to live without Wi-Fi.
