I am concerned. I didn’t bring up billionaire. I just wonder why we damn a whole company of 10k ppl doing cool science shit because we don’t like the CEO.
I don't think you can call something that can be shut down by a single company "global internet"
I have problems with the satellites sure, but fundamentally the whole premise is flawed.
Also spacex isn't exactly doing great ok engineering compared to ULA and other industry leaders. Feels a bit weird to put them on a pedestal.
Because the product those 10k built is polluting space, is a tool for US imperialism (see Ukraine and Iran) and inefficient at that
