I think this is a glimpse of both our present and near future. Companies failing without an end-of-life plan, and hackers swooping in. It's fascinating. I wonder what it might tell us about more extreme examples, like major power and fuel infrastructure.

I also see outlines of interesting game missions inspired by this. Particularly decommissioning satellites on decaying orbits that are full of dangerous materials that need removed, but are guarded by automated defenses! That'd make a great dungeon crawl.
