A self destruct on a satellite would likely add unwanted weight and danger for getting it off of the ground.
If that self destruct is explosive, I'm sure there would be a pretty negative reaction to having that in orbit; it'd be a 1 percent chance of a tiny bomb surviving reentry and hitting a populated area giving the media something to get overly excited about.

I saw the table of contents and closed it. I'll wait for the flash version.
While I'd love to render Halle Barry topless - I'm not sure I'd be using a computer.
