A megastructure filling space with trash, a project that in paper looks like either impossible to complete or a total waste of energy, time and pollution to solve a problem we don’t have* and leaving this new net of satellites on the hands of a psycopath.

I really like the idea of starlink, but those are the cons I can think off.

*connectivity is solved by adding cables. What’s the cost (money, energy, pollution + life) of a cable crossing the Atlantic vs the cost of a satellite?

Inb4, I’m not siding with anyone, just trying to make the discussion roll.

I have a master II equivalent in material science and a specialization in nuclear reactors, 33 years.

The difference between being* a child or not, as I learned, is the facial hair.

Jokes aside, people perception of you depends strongly on the way you interact with them.
