Are you even serious? Maybe try looking at a map of spain, there are plenty of rural areas that are loosing population and leaving old towns completely deserted because they lack internet connection and are hours away from any relevant city and shops, you can read about the empty Spain https://www.theguardian.com/world/2019/apr/22/empty-spain-government-urged-to-act-as-towns-fade-from-map with a simple search instead of trying to talk about stuff you dont even know, also btw, conectate 35 is the same concept as starlink, which is satellite driven internet for rural areas, but its way cheaper, sustainable and isnt managed by a piece of shit. https://interactive.guim.co.uk/uploader/embed/2019/04/spain_pop-zip/giv-3902luNkorAsXraI/Spanish-population-change-inArticle_620.png

for example in spain: https://conectate35.es/ where they have internet for 35 euros a month, in any part of the territory with 100mbps download speed

.

Pick one or the other, you're literally arguing both sides of the fence here.

Is it really hard to read and understand that the government is launching this kind of operations with small internet providers and hispasat so people stop having to leave the rural side of spain from lacking access to internet?
