  But nobody is going to fucking pay for running the land based alternatives out to current Starlink users, so sucks to suck I guess.

    You mean we’ve (as in the US) already paid to run networks out to rural customers and the telecoms just pocketed the money and asked for more. It’s amazing our government won’t just run their own networks.

      That would be unfair competition for the corporations. At least, that’s what the courts have ruled…

  I’d love to read this article, but I get one and a half paragraphs of fluff and then a paywall block.
