Navy officer lost job for secretly installing internet on warship to check social media
Briefly

Grisel Marrero, a command senior chief, orchestrated an unauthorized internet setup on the USS Manchester, demonstrating a significant disregard for Navy protocols and cybersecurity.
The Navy confirmed that internet access on deployed ships is heavily regulated to ensure operational bandwidth and cybersecurity, underscoring the serious nature of Marrero's actions.
Marrero and others used Starlink for personal connectivity, even circumventing regulations by installing a satellite dish clandestinely and lying about its existence to superiors.
Marrero's case highlights the conflict between military operational security and personal internet needs, raising questions about how far personnel may go to bridge that gap.
