Good, private infrastructure is bad for the people. Especially given that tool owns Starlink.

right? like what if the owner of starlink learned that an invaded country wanted to defend itself with drones using starlink but said owner supported the invaders and shut it off?

I'm not sure I believe the full 1M number either, TBH.

Ok. But without Starlink I wouldn’t have internet service. Harsh on Elon all you want but Starlink is outstanding.
