Oh hey, science coming to the conclusions I already warned people about ages ago:
Warning, PDF: https://arxiv.org/ftp/arxiv/papers/2309/2309.02338.pdf
As the newscientist (paywalled, so no longer linked) headline phrased it:
"Starlink carbon footprint up to 30 times size of land-based internet"
Also: satellite internet is slower, more expensive to deploy and maintain and operate, and higher latency than fiber.
It's almost as if: we should always have been deploying fiber to the home, and never trusting billionaire space Karens or something.
But hey, keep not heeding my warnings, perpetuate hell longer than necessary? We all lose!
