I despise people illegally using amateur radio equipment. Listening in the amateur radio bands to anyone's conversation has no guarantee of privacy.
Hello Bob,
Let me clarify: there is no expectation of privacy in the amateur radio service, and commercial use is prohibited.
My privacy comments were aimed at your satellites tracking cellular phones and other consumer-type radios. However, I'll leave it at that, as this forum is dedicated to amateur radio in space.
Bad guys using our satellites for nefarious purposes, as W2RS mentions in a reply, is definitely something that should concern us.
