I didn't read the article but I'd bet the "why" is because it's been on the news and people think it's an easy way to make a quick buck. However, these people are amateurs - when it's in the news you're already too late.

For the dishes: I don't know the details of the 2 systems, but is there no way to retrofit the Starlink dishes to use Eutelsat's constellation? I mean if we exclude the legal IP mess for reverse-engineering the electronics and software.
