Satellite Internet of the Starlink system of the American company SpaceX may be restricted in order to protect national security, Vladimir Korovkin, head of the Innovation and digital technologies Department at the Moscow school of management SKOLKOVO, told Nezavisimaya Gazeta.

"And if Russia itself wants to isolate itself from international addresses, then the space Internet from [the head of SpaceX, an American engineer and businessman Elon] The mask can become a hole in this defense system, " Korovkin admitted.

In his opinion, several tens of thousands of people living in Chukotka, Kamchatka and Siberia will need Starlink in Russia. "It doesn't make sense to create a separate group of satellites for them, "the expert said, adding that the Russian Sphere could theoretically compete with the SpaceX project.

In November, a member of the Board of the Military-industrial Commission (MIC) of Russia, Alexander Ivanov , said that Roscosmos had asked the state budget for one and a half trillion rubles for the Sphere satellite system.

In September, Ars Technica, referring to SpaceX, reported that the Starlink system provides a download speed of 100 megabits per second and "ultra-low latency" (ping), which allows you to play online games and download several videos in HD format at once.
