Remember when the US govt. provided incentives for major ISPs to upgrade\expand their service and they just kinda pocketed the money and did nothing? Imagine if they didn’t. We may not have had a need for starlink.
well maybe your right, maybe slowing down research and impeding the scientific progress of the human race is a small price to pay for getting Grandma in Bumfuck, Montana onto Facebook, and maybe these so called scientists should stop poking around the universe anyway, right ?
Isn’t Starlink a major player in getting high speed Internet to developing nations? I’m as mad as you about ruining the sky, but it’s not just Grandma it’s also entire villages in the global south.
This is such a shitty take.
He’s kinda right though…

Imagine 7.700.000.000 people not living in the US
Starlink has customers in 99 countries as of March. It’s a global service.
