Sounds interesting. For years people have looked for a way to destroy this
harmful thing called television - a tool allowing the rich and powerful to
control the mind and consumerism of entire civilisations. However this tool
has been so powerful that nothing has even made a scratch on it, yet. But
maybe we have hope: It might be destroyed as collateral damage as part of
operation "hacker satellite". The goal of this operation is to trap the rich
and powerful in a catch-22. Either they ignore the satellite (then their
censorship fails) or they shoot it down (then their propoganda fails).

Seriously, don't you think it is easier less straining on international
relations to jam a satellite then destroy it? See also:
