It's already there... OneWeb had them turn it off because they didn't want to make a move that would conflict with the self driving collision avoidance.
Seems like this is a situation where all the players should have access to (and be using) the same algorithms, rather than SpaceX and OneWeb having to sort this stuff out on the fly.
Sounds like they really should have something like TACS. So it's not just algorithms on each satellite, but them automatically mutually agreeing on what actions to take. "you go that way, I go this way" type deal.
No worries (Score:2)
they have no way of knowing which way the system will move a Starlink satellite in the event of a close approach.
No worries. Musk will upload his self-driving software to the satellites. Everything will work perfectly.

mistyped TCAS... my bad
