The Starlink license agreement could be hugely impactful to civilization. Consider the possibilities. If SpaceX decides to distribute satellites at a complete loss and privileges selected few with the dishes themselves it can remove the right to exclusivity. This would open access to the receiver to anybody who is within range of the receiver who […]
