https://www.nesdis.noaa.gov/CRSRA/licenseHome.htmlIt is unlawful for any person who is subject to the jurisdiction or control of the United States, directly or through any subsidiary or affiliate to operate a private remote sensing space system without possession of a valid license issued under the Act and the regulations.
Odd that it just became a problem, they've been showing satellite separations on orbit for years now.

Maybe a consequence of starman?

Maybe someone didn't get the license paperwork filed in time for this flight? That would impose a restriction, if they didn't have the license, I suppose.

I am sure the NSF journalist will get us a answer on why we are having NOAA restrictions now on live video coverage of launches after years of having live video coverage.

That's rediculous. This is launch telemetry, not remote sensing. Launch telemetry is licensed by the FAA, not by NOAA.

Or these alleged restrictions always existed but this time SpaceX didn't managed to fill paperwork in time for whatever reason...

Well even the NOAA PAO seems to agree with you:

More from NOAA spox RE today's @SpaceX launch:
"I can only think it's an error. I would double check with them. Happy to follow up here if there is a NOAA connection."

Possibly relevant that they has to cut the broadcast just 1 second before seco.
I.E. "launch" is ended, vehicle is now "in orbit"
I think I smell a bureaucrat throwing his weight around.
If this was any other country, I would expect that someone had not been paid his routine bribe...

I think the issue is the rocket cam once in orbit is effective remote sensing, I guess SpaceX and others haven't realised this.

Hard to see the launch this morning from my front yard in Santa Clarita just north of Low Angeles. Just a tiny white dot with a minimal trail. Not the big clear contrails of the previous launch.
Couldn't see the second stage at all.
Edit: From other posts there was a con trail. It was just not visible to me as it was under my local horizon.

Why would NOAA have any jurisdiction of any kind over a private spacecraft - in space - over international airspace? Over American airspace I might concede the point, but international airspace? That's just wrong!

Telemetry is licensed by the FAA through the duration of the
mission, not just until the vehicle hits orbit.

More likely, some oversight/regulation changes being implemented due to those troublesome Bees.
