Starlink shouldn't exist. it's unnecessary , we have better options... make internet a utility and force the companies we already gave millions to, to actually modernize infostructure and bring internet to undeserved locations that still have 56k
What's better than Starlink in the boonies?
If you live somewhere that has electricity coming from the energy grid then by default should also have Internet coming to your house as well. By defining the internet as a utility and treating it like one you would get more funding to build out the network. Something similar happened with phone lines way back in the day if I'm not mistaken.
The isps have been given finding. Multiple times. Then they merge with another ISP and claim they're not obligated to fulfill the contract despite owning the company that signed the contract... And a greedy politician finds some reasons in their pocket to allow that excuse
