I'm seeing Mastodon listed in this article about social media bans in Nepal:

Does anyone know how they're handling the whole decentralization aspect? Is it just mastodon dot social that's banned, or is it all instances? The entire Fediverse?
I love how smart these AI technologies are. They understand that "bigger" for cities can be ambiguous, refer to either the population or the area. It's also great that it's showing the sources in the upper corner, and displaying the basic facts.
Small minus on consistency and correctness, but other than that, really a great answer.

I have a question about the following:
Space-X satellites are relatively low orbit - they go around the world, their radio/signal footprint on the ground goes around the world with them.
So how does a single country, the US, issue "license" for radio spectrum that apply outside of the US geographic borders?
"SpaceX buys wireless spectrum from EchoStar in $17 billion deal"
