Eight satellites from five different member states are currently being pooled as part of GOVSATCOM. The Commission hopes this is the first step towards less dependence on the US - whose own communication systems are a lot more mature. #EuropeNews
Also GPS is oneway, so there is no way for the US to spy on people with it. They can however block regions as a form of sanctions, so you should never rely on it.
Not just block, but alter the coordinates, which is even more malicious.
Not exactly, they can introduce some drift on clocks. Or send wrong orbital ephemeris. Most commercial receiver would probably stop tracking satellite signals introducing too much differences from the others
Don’t they control majority od them?
Good point yeah
