If your business plan involves firing out infinite rockets full of cell towers forever. You should probably just spend the money on copper instead.
This makes zero sense. If that was profitable it would have been done already.
It's not, neither is starlink. That's the whole point. You have two things, you can either launch infinite rockets forever or lay some infrastructure that we can benefit from forever.
Why America chooses not to lay infrastructure is beyond me. More so why Americans justify it so often. This shit is why America doesn't have trains.
Bundle it all together! We have tons of electrical that should be moved underground. Throw internet lines into that pool too and put it all under the ground and run the network cables everywhere the power goes.
