State of Internet Access in Armenia: From Fiber to the Final Frontier

State of Internet Access in Armenia: From Fiber to the Final Frontier

Armenia ended ArmenTel’s monopoly around 2005–2007, opening Armenia’s internet market to new ISPs and mobile operators. In 2013, Armenia removed the licensing regime for ISPs, allowing any company to provide internet after notifying the Public Services Regulatory Commission (PSRC). By 2022, more than 200 ISPs were officially registered in Armenia. In 2020, Armenia scored 88.5 out of 100 on the ITU ICT Regulatory Tracker, placing it in the advanced “fourth generation” regulation category. As of 2023, about 77% of Armenia’s population uses the internet. By 2021, 100% of Armenia’s settlements had 4G/LTE coverage. Fiber accounts for over 83% of fixed

State of Internet Access in Armenia: From Fiber to the Final Frontier

Stand des Internetzugangs in Armenien: Von Glasfaser bis zur letzten Grenze

Nach der Unabhängigkeit 1991 hielt ArmenTel ein gesetzliches Monopol für Telefonie- und Internetdienste, beteiligt durch Griechenlands OTE und später Russlands VimpelCom. 1998 wurde ArmenTels Monopol gewährt, was das frühe Internetwachstum hemmte. Mitte der 2000er Jahre endeten die Exklusivrechte faktisch etwa 2005–2007, wodurch neue ISPs und Mobilfunkbetreiber in den Markt einziehen konnten. 2013 beseitigten Änderungen des Gesetzes zur elektronischen Kommunikation das alte Lizenzregime für ISPs, sodass Anbieter Internetdienste nach einfacher Mitteilung an die PSRC anbieten durften. 2022 waren über 200 ISPs offiziell in Armenien gemeldet. Im ITU-ICT-Regulatory-Tracker 2020 erreichte Armenien 88,5/100 Punkte. 2023 nutzten etwa 77% der armenischen Bevölkerung das Internet.

Shocking Showdown: How Iran Is Trying to Snuff Out Elon Musk’s Starlink—and Why Tens of Thousands of Dishes Keep Beaming Freedom Back

Shocking Showdown: How Iran Is Trying to Snuff Out Elon Musk’s Starlink—and Why Tens of Thousands of Dishes Keep Beaming Freedom Back

On 23 June 2025, Iran’s Ministry of Communications warned that owning or installing a Starlink terminal is a punishable offense and asked the ITU to compel SpaceX to deactivate unauthorized devices inside Iran. Following Israel’s Operation Rising Lion on 13 June, Iran’s internet blackout peaked with connectivity falling by 97 percent. In 2021 Iran filed its first Starlink complaint at the ITU, launching the dispute over SpaceX’s operation. In October 2023 the ITU Radio Regulations Board ruled in Iran’s favor and ordered Starlink to obey Iranian licensing laws. In March 2024 the ITU RRB reiterated the demand after objections from

Sky Wars: The Rising Drone Threat and High-Tech Counter-Drone Warfare

Sky Wars: The Rising Drone Threat and High-Tech Counter-Drone Warfare

From 2006 to 2023, violent non-state actors carried out 1,122 drone attacks, with a peak of 265 in 2023. The 2018 Gatwick airport incident highlighted the public-safety risks posed by off-the-shelf quadcopters. The Ukraine war has been described as the first “drone war,” with both sides deploying swarms of small drones for surveillance and strikes, and in 2023 the U.S. supplied Ukraine with VAMPIRE kits (vehicle-mounted laser-guided rockets) for drone defense. Counter-drone systems use a layered approach—radar, RF, EO/IR, and acoustic sensors—with Fortem DroneHunter using compact R20 and R30 radars to spot small UAS out to several kilometers. RF detection

How AI is Reshaping the Future of Warfare – What You Need to Know Now

Jak sztuczna inteligencja zmienia przyszłość wojny – co musisz wiedzieć już teraz

W 2017 roku Departament Obrony USA uruchomił Project Maven, program AI do identyfikowania celów na nagraniach z dronów. W 2020 roku DARPA przeprowadziła AlphaDogfight Trials, w których sztuczna inteligencja firmy Heron Systems pokonała pilota F-16 5-0 w symulowanym pojedynku. Pod koniec 2023 roku AI sterowała prawdziwym F-16 podczas testów powietrznych w ramach programu ACE DARPA. USA planuje wystawić ponad 1000 maszyn Collaborative Combat Aircraft (CCA) do 2030 roku, latających obok myśliwców F-35 i koncepcji NGAD. W 2017 roku Chiny ogłosiły Plan Rozwoju Sztucznej Inteligencji Nowej Generacji, dążący do światowego lidera AI do 2030 roku, a szacowany chiński rynek AI miał
