Point well taken here....
I would compare to intentional QRM on a CW circuit...
This type of thing along with all the spam problems, hackers etc. and the
very vulnerability of the whole
internet to service interruptions sometimes makes me wonder if it is really
the answer to everyone comms needs...
It really would not take much of a plan to almost completely severe this
type of comms and isolate most of North American contact with the rest of
the world..

Then its back to HF Radio (if the sun co-operates)
