    Do you also think cell towers are “polluting the landscape”?

      Of course cell towers are an eye sore. Though they are more necessary than starlink, often hidden by landscape or on top of buildings anyway. It’s not the “gotcha” comparison you think it is.

        Why are they more necessary? They both do the same job.

          Perhaps necessary was the wrong word, though I don’t know if starlink supports the same bands the towers already do for 2G, 3G, 4G etc. They don’t obstruct our skies, so that’s much preferable.

            Starlink sats are only visible to the naked eye when they’ve just launched, once in orbit they’re only a problem for ground based optical astronomy, and even then it doesn’t seem to be as much of a problem as everyone makes out.

            I get that you probably hate Musk, but a lot of the points you’re making are just nonsense.

                Where did I say I was a fan of him?

                You’re making judgement calls about the technology because you hate the owner of the company, which is kinda sad.
