Now that's a valid use. I think the western world should just lob a few communications satellites above the middle east (and anywhere else a nation's leadership doesn't answer to its people), drop satellite phones instead of Hershey bars in their care packages, and see what happens. It's expensive, but once the revolution occurs, you can cancel everyone's "free" service and send in the telcos with their service contracts. Call the phones a subsidized loss leader. But, I'm not sure letting AT&T or BT control access to speech is any better than what some of those countries have today.
