Amazon Kuiper Kenya Limited, a new subsidiary, has applied for a 15-year licence to build a ground station linking its low-Earth orbit satellites to Kenya's fibre networks. This would boost Amazon Leo's broadband service, promising residential speeds up to 400 Mbps and business speeds to 1,280 Mbps—far exceeding Starlink's current offerings amid Kenya's growing demand. Kenya's undersea cables, skilled workforce, and equatorial position make it ideal, and approvals could bring better rural access while raising concerns about signal interference with local mobile networks.

Wichtigste Erkenntnis

Amazon is eyeing Kenya for its first African satellite gateway, setting up a direct contest with Starlink in the race for faster internet across remote areas.

Senators John Kennedy (R-La.) and Ron Wyden (D-Ore.) introduced the Open Courts Act of 2026 to replace PACER and CM/ECF with a free, modern system featuring easy searches, APIs, and strong cybersecurity. The bill ends per-page fees that bring in $140 million yearly, shifting funding to surcharges on heavy users and agency fees to save taxpayers over $60 million annually. Kennedy called PACER an 'old, clunky government website' that burdens people, while advocates praise it as a long-overdue upgrade after past bills stalled. Legal journalists and groups welcomed the move, though experts note it won't solve all access issues like sealed records.

Senators from opposite parties joined forces to fix a clunky federal court website that's charged users for decades. No more nickel-and-diming Americans for public records, they say.
