Hate to be that guy, but this reference has "gone corpo" a long time ago and somwhat tired now. A number of companies/products have used it for "cool points" with now middle-aged men over the years.

Airbus has Skynet already. And it's a very generic name either way with multiple companies using it.

There's an ISP called SkyNet in Russia. No satellites though, just regular ethernet cables.
