So its just embeding some files in a satalite tv broadcast stream? I dont think that helps that much. If you have satalite tv going in, you already have video coming in, are arbitrary files really that much more useful? The thing people really want internet communication for is 2 way coms. Getting info on the situation on the ground out and allowing different groups inside Iran to coordinate. I fail to see how this helps with that. | ||
