    I hate musk as much as every self respecting person, but this isn’t possible. These systems are designed to run over the Internet, and thus heavily encrypted.

      Ah, well, “designed to run over the internet”. Okay then. I guess no ISP has ever been able to MitM intercept traffic.

        That’s literally what I’m talking about yes. Well done. The internet is essentially open traffic and that’s what “designed for the internet” has to deal with, so you encrypt and kill mitm attacks in many many ways.

        Yes, designed to run over the internet, as in they use end to end encryption, which has long been the way of defeating MitM intercepts.
