    It’s all the people getting Starlink because it looks cool.

    Also because there’s way too many areas with no alternatives; congestion is exactly why Starlink shouldn’t be getting any funding.

      That’s the issue in outback and rural Australia

      Nothing can compete with it out there, outside the townships and optic fibre hasn’t been laid everywhere including a lot of the towns.

      Cashed up bogans and tradies, grey nomads, all have it on their fourbys and Adventure Before Dementia buses.

    Don’t worry. Starlink is a dead-on-arrival business. It cannot possibly succeed and will go down in history alongside a lot of other massive industrial boondoggles.
