Starlink needs expensive modem, that is not only too expensive for such countries, hard to import, but can be also reason for very long prison sentence. Some nanosatellite with amplified BLE compatible frontend might do miracles. It is impossible to block ISM band countrywide, anybody can climb a hill and point mobile to sky and receive regional news. No need even for custom software, just any software that can receive BLE data (development/debugging tools).
