Australia to switch to Amazon’s Kuiper satellites by 2026 for better rural internet, raising sovereignty and reliability concerns.
Australia will replace its SkyMuster satellite internet with Amazon’s Project Kuiper low-earth orbit satellites, launching mid-2026, to boost speeds and access in remote areas.
While the upgrade promises better connectivity, concerns grow over reliance on U.S.-based providers like Amazon and Starlink, raising risks to national sovereignty, data privacy, and emergency service reliability.
Current satellite emergency calls (triple zero) are limited to text, and past disruptions by foreign operators highlight vulnerabilities.
Though NBN Co aims to keep data traffic within Australia to protect sovereignty, long-term service stability remains uncertain due to limited control over international networks.
