As someone that uses Starlink due to nothing else being in my area, I hate everything about this. Sure the convenience of having internet wherever I want is nice, but this still sucks. Especially since I'm a huge space nerd so this shit just hurts my soul.
In your defense, there should be internet in your area but the government dropped the ball and let Comcast scam them.
My favorite part is that bout 5 miles down the highway they have fibre optic. They've been "installing" it for about 4 or 5 years now. They've had the spool just sitting outside for half that time.
God that's just depressing
