Bad for profits though. The sun is too free. How are they supposed to make money on this?

You know how capitalists love a disaster. They’ll sell shovels all day while cornering the market on ladders. All the resistance to wind and solar comes from big money.

How difficult would it be to DIY an anti-satellite weapon?

I have a prediction. The sun will not run out in our lifetime and will keep on shining. Oil might be a problem, and become scarce

If you’re wrong about the sun, no one will be saying much.
