Comment on SpaceX says states should dump fiber plans, give all grant money to Starlink

I had to clarify what you were arguing about, because otherwise I was going to yell at you about latency issues and data throttling and the risks of Kessler syndrome and about how bad it is to put critical infrastructure in the hands of a single company.

I’m well aware of those issues as well, which is why I’m not pro-starlink replacing all terrestrial networks.

And that’s why I asked! I didn’t want to presume, but it was hard to tell without the clarification.
