Emphasis mine.
I wonder if these are the same poeple who, a few years ago, were concerned that "Evil Hackers" would access small satellites and de-orbit them at specific targets.
I could have sworn something similar happened in the 90's (possibly early 2000?) which prompted the US government to create such a law. I'm unable to look it up right now, but a quick search may yield what I'm describing. Look for "Space Marketing Inc." or some variation thereof.
I used to read dystopian cyberpunk and think "lol that's stupid, no way will it get that far" and it's increasingly more often that I see stuff from dystipian fiction creep it's way into our lives lol

However do they intend to accomplish that? Quantum entanglement can't be used to accelerate classical communications!
I know there aren't any laws there yet but why should be expect no morals at all from people with power?
Is Elon Musk simply another bad person?
