Starlink tries to block Virginia’s plan to bring fiber Internet to residents
SpaceX wants more money, asks Trump admin to reject state’s broadband grant plan.
Weird how these free market assholes are afraid of a little competition.
But it’s my fiduciary duty to be a whiny feckless loser
Fuck starlink, its really not very good unless that is all you can get. I prefered my 25/10 wireless connection because it doesnt randomly drop connection. Fibre is the way to go and it will always be there unlike shitlink that will need a constant supply of satilites.
FYI wireless regulation in the USA is much more loosey-goosey than that which is directed to the customer via the wires.
Stick with the wires as much and as long as one can.
Ask any engineer, ask any country in the world. Saying that satellite internet or mobile broadband is a reasonable replacement for fiber in any city, and you'll be laughed at.
