Starlink is probably a stopgap measure for areas that still have to build up the physical infrastructure for the real solution.

It’s more of a solution for having internet available just about anywhere. Probably good for various emergency/rescue scenarios.

I still don't want the Americans to be controlling literally anything I use or interact with. They will harvest that data to execute military operations against leftists where I live. No fucking thanks, keep your Starlink.

Sad American upvote for that. I can’t imagine how this country must look to people around the world.
