US warns of 'devastating' retaliation over EU plan to curb Starlink spectrum access
• 2 hours ago
Login
What's the deal? US ambassador to the EU Andrew Puzder has warned of "devastating" retaliation if Brussels proceeds with a plan to reserve most of a prized satellite-to-smartphone spectrum band for European operators. Speaking to the Financial Times, Puzder said the size of the US market gives Washington significant scope to hit back.

Americans and other white people with strong passports are absolutely going to drive me to a bottle of whiskey with the perpetual, “my company shouldn’t complain when I work with no proper visa or authorisation from a foreign county, without asking” comments, and I’m a huge remote work advocate.
@hacks4pancakes what about when you travel internationally for work?
There's no legal or tax implications and no visa needed for that.

@ of course you need a visa to travel for work. It's a business visitor visa. People with strong passports aren't really aware we're getting one when we apply for evisas or have visas in principle. But we absolutely have to have them too. And they are limited to business visitor activities.
