The expansion of technology, from WiFi waves to mega-constellations of satellites, presents us with a profound dilemma: how do we balance human progress with respect for non-human life? Birds, silent witnesses of the sky, are potential victims of a progress that often moves forward without asking or considering.

Science is still debating the specific impacts, but what is clear is that every action we take reverberates through larger systems. From migratory disorientation to light pollution, our technological infrastructures may be disrupting millennia-old patterns in nature. This confronts us with an ethical responsibility: do we want a world where our technological convenience takes precedence over biodiversity?

The colonization of the sky, like that of the land, follows logics of control and profit, without genuine consent from the affected communities, whether human or non-human. Nature is not a resource to be exploited at will; it is a shared territory that demands respect and self-management.

Thus, the solution lies not only in institutional regulations but in collective resistance that questions the necessity of these massive systems.
