    All the rules that apply to SA ISPs must apply to Starlink

    BBBEE must be dropped before SA can be rebuilt - when Elon refuses something, it is for excellent reasons. Even as licensed i-ECNS/ECS operators, we were not permitted to resell Starlink - what a disgrace ICASA is ! Due to massive regulatory compliance and huge corruption in South Africa there...

    ISP black ownership should be incentivised with a carrot, not a whip

    We found that, if you have an I-ECNS/ECS 'license', regulations are already in place enforcing the new 'quotas' - meaning that you can't change shareholders without approval. So it's already in effect. ICASA 'owns' the license and can bestow it's value as it sees fit, despite having contributed...

    ISP black ownership should be incentivised with a carrot, not a whip

    The foolproof way to lose your stake in a venture is to let government run it. It is well known that governments everywhere are inherently corrupt. We should demand much less regulation under smaller government, HOWEVER, the radical economic transformation geniuses think that theft is...

    ISP black ownership should be incentivised with a carrot, not a whip

    Not true - whites built a country that was handed over in perfect working order - now just a marxist looting spree before the loot runs out. BBBEE has delivered only a class incapable of organizing one damned thing properly. By killing the goose that lays the golden eggs, we are headed directly...

    Are you troubled by the Cybercrimes Bill?

    The only benefit may be that we then actually have a law to prosecute hackers under. Other than that, we need LESS legislation and a much smaller government. All the socialist/communist structures do is deliver more stealth taxes and erode our freedoms. Government is the very last group to be...

    Driving a Ferrari – but earning less than R34,000 per month

    See the stream of ultra-luxurious vehicles exiting after an ANC conference or govt Imbizo - way in excess of these little Ferrari collectors. Public servants at departmental level should use a Toyota Cressida and middle managers have access to Toyota Corollas. None of the current Government...

    There are other players now, and their Woke Supremacy is a major negative - along with all of the listed woke fools. A pity, but there it is. Nobody is irreplaceable.

    South Africa cigarette ban a "spectacular failure"

    screw every nonsensical "lockdown rule". What has a walk on the beach or fishing or using a boat or playing golf got to do with any of this except CONTROL by the self-impoised communist muppets. Neither the ANC nor Rama is our god. The right thing to do is to Fight tyrannical overreach with...

    Do you support the government restriction on exercise?

    ALL outdoor activities must be allowed - if necessary with conditions. Definitely walking/hiking, jogging/running, tennis, golf, and motorsport must be allowed. Probably set conditions for group size and spectators spacing.
