I read a thing about that yesterday and the responsible party is whomever sent up the junk in the first place.

Which translates directly to “get fucked, pleb.” Because, what? Is China or Russia gonna pay out for their crap breaking shit in Texas or Spain? Who’s at fault with international collaborations? Etc.

And the thing I read basically had that as a conclusion as well - good luck getting paid out, and your insurance probably won’t cover it either.
