the point is that it costs money to get infrastructure anywhere. and those ppl that just want to live out their fantasy to build their own ugly home somewhere in the woods just care about themselves.
Starlink is actually extremely expensive and slow. About $600 for the dish and about $100 for speed slower than my cable plan in 2003 as slow as 25Mbps. Worse even though rural areas are spread out a good chunk of people tend towards smaller clumps close enough to be sharing the same bandwidth. The entire constellation doesn’t scale to supporting a reasonable experience to even a fraction of rural America let alone planet earth.
You still basically need to run fiber into every town however small.
assumptions assumptions.
look at the facts.
co2 -> rural homes cause way more emissions
…so does their commute.
they cost, we pay
internet…extremely expensive to get fibre everywhere. …so is public transport.
the cost, we pay
i do not see how a planet with growing numbers of ppl could allow rural areas really
Fibre cost per kilometer is much cheaper than copper. Fibre is cheapest way to get internet everywhere.
starlink not cheaper?

I literally provided facts and linked on the ones that are not common knowledge
