CRAN issues warning on use of Starlink
NEWS IN SHORT
The Communications Regulatory Authority of Namibia (CRAN) has issued a warning about the unlicensed advertising and illegal selling and use of Starlink equipment in Namibia. Starlink offers low-earth orbit satellite communication services but is not licensed to operate in Namibia.
"Following an investigation, CRAN has established that Starlink is operating a network within Namibia without the required telecommunications license."
"On 26 November, CRAN issued a cease-and-desist order to Starlink, instructing the company to immediately cease all operations in Namibia," CRAN CEO Emilia Nghikembua said in a statement.
"CRAN investigators have already confiscated illegal terminals from consumers and have opened criminal cases with the Namibian Police in this regard."
