Can Anonymous shut down Russian military satelite access?

<< < (5/9) > >>

Bud:
I remember from a few years back Anonyomus claiming a war against narco cartels in South America. A few days later several of anonymous were found hanging from a bridge with their guts open. So Anonymous may not be that anonymous as they might think. Just recently watched a documentary about "Commander X", the Anonymous grandfarther. Trying to avoid prosecution he ended up crossing the US illegally from Canada to Mexico where he applied for a political asylum but later was arrested and extradicted to the US.

SiliconWizard:
Maybe "Anonymous" can also reverse climate change and solve nuclear fusion.

Also, military satellites belong to and are controlled by Russian Aerospace Forces, not Roskosmos.

FYI the US currently has 28 GPS satellites, the Russian GLONAS constellation has 27 satellites. At any time there will always be the odd satellite in maintenance mode, and some non-operational as designated spares in both constellations. So I don't think the Russians are relying on foreign GPS but are getting nice military grade, encrypted, jamming resistant signals from their own satellites.

Of course, like the British army once had to do, they may not have enough military grade GNSS receivers to go around and have to rely on less accurate civilian ones as well as military grade ones, but I'll bet you a penny to pound that if they are those civilian GNNS receivers are tuned to GLONASS.

"Russia and China have been increasingly moving toward greater synergies between their respective satellite navigation systems since at least 2015. "

Quote ... "China and Russia have agreed to coordinate their satellite navigation systems as the two countries further solidify their partnership to rival the US-owned GPS. This comes as Russian President Vladimir Putin hailed “unprecedented” close ties with China at a meeting with Chinese leader Xi Jinping in Beijing ahead of the Winter Olympics opening ceremony."

Suggesting to read it all as it has much more details.

Btw, this 1st article is written in 2019, and we all know Russia and China military have been working together intensively lately like joint naval or army exercises, pretty sure in 2022 now its different from 2019 where the article was written.

It's important to remember that Anonymous isn't a group and there is no "leader" or any of the things one associates with a group acting together.  It's a brand, an idea.  Anonymous can be anyone, and anyone can be Anonymous.

Chance to post my favorite poster, no other comments, other then to say, these days, hacking often needs the help of a "state" service or source code from the factory.  I know of no way that a  mere human can read  16+million lines of code in a modern OS.
