You think if someone was evil and willing, they’d design and launch a satellite designed to seek out another satellite and take it out of orbit in a way that causes it to drop randomly into the atmosphere?

All this instead of simply launching a satellite that does what they want? Or skipping the satellite and doing it with terrestrial solutions?

Some people’s threat models are very upside down.
