Concerning.
Fyi. T-Mobile uses starlink and so does the Walmart mobile since it's through t mobile.
You can simply opt out of it for now. Eventually... good luck if Starlink enshittifies.

FTFY
You don't need to do a humiliation ritual about it, thank you very little.
So fucking glad I canceled starlink after the nazi did the nazi salute
I was also recommending my family not get Starlink, though many people on the right shill it (reviews seem to be skewed for purely political reasons). However, on the technical front, HughsNet and one other service (I forget who) use higher orbit satellites, and apparently, their speeds and bandwidth are garbage for the price people pay for that sort of thing. To be fair about it, however, your biggest issue with Starlink is the surveillance, as it could be offered for free in the future. However, if that's the case, it's our data we pay with instead of some sort of monetary value.
Yeah, the privacy part is a huge factor too. Yes the speed and performance was very good for me, especially since I am rural. I wouldn't go for starlink unless it paid me enough to pay for a different ISP
I think you can easily use a VPN at the router level for you (as long as you have a modem set to bridge mode, and bridge a router of your choice to it), and that way, you'll at least protect yourself a bit (DNS comes first).
But like most traffic is SSL encrypted, how is he going to read any of it?
what the fuck data are they trying to use to train LLMs? basically everything else these days is encrypted and unreadable by them (for the time being), and DNS is easily masked as well. maybe i just answered my own question, they want to train a model that can surrepetiously spy on encrypted traffic.
