Ok everybody, time to stock up the bomb shelters. And if your last name is Connor, change it!

According to the article there was a %250 increase in capabilities from the last generation to the present one...

“Paradigm hopes to earn money for itself by selling spare capacity to Nato countries and other "friendly" forces.”

Last time I checked the US was considered a “friendly” nation so maybe you should worry Schmacky!
Imagine skynet in space! that would be one hard sucker to get at for future John!

I think the rest of us should change our names TO Connor in solidarity, like in Spartacus.

Let's see what we can make of this article:

"The spacecraft have also been "hardened" to withstand any interference - attempts to disable or take control of the satellites."

So trying to pull the plug won't work. And if we try to destroy it?

"So, the importance of our third satellite is that we have an in-orbit spare should anything go wrong."

Just great, they've got spares! Can it ge any worse?

"Skynet 5C was launched along with a commercial "co-passenger" - TURKSAT 3A..."

And there's the TURK too! What could possibly go wrong with all this? Paging John Conner ... please pick up the white courtesy phone...
