10 April 2015 | Financial Times | Jill Stuart
In 2007 the Sri Lankan government noticed that propaganda for the Tamil Tigers, the rebel group, was being broadcast regionally from an Intelsat satellite over the Indian Ocean.

Two years earlier, Tamil fighters had hacked the satellite and proceeded to use its signal sporadically for their own political purposes.
