Hah, if satellites were actually that large… It still wouldn’t actually be a problem. It’s really hard to grasp just how far things are apart up in geostationary orbit, there is a truly immense amount is space. There’s plenty of elbow room for thousands of Rhode Islands floating around up there, no reason to worry about collisions.
