@spider based on whether they had the consent of the owner.
Is that what you mean by "jurisdiction", or something else? I don't believe there are any location based jurisdictions, if I'm wrong about that please let me know.
@EvanDaniel I was wondering as to the case if the operator was within the jurisdiction of the nation, not the satellite itself.
@spider is there a reason the language in the market is unclear there? My expectation would be that it would be fairly clear based on reporting whether the operator (and owner, if different) consented.
@EvanDaniel I'm not entirely sure what they are asking but I think there is some attempt at development of criteria along the lines of:
Defunct satellite of X entity is no longer under any control and there is broad consensus that "removing" it would be good for everyone, but X entity either no longer exists or otherwise does not give consent for destruction. Y country decides to take action, and successfully hits it, without direct consent of the other party.
I think there might be some wiggle room in there between "both sides consent" and "direct attack of someone else's property". From the description it seems like anything other than direct consent would count toward a Yes, but that's just my guess.
@Eliza successful. Thank you; I'll clarify.
See here for some of my reasoning on that:
