Once starship is fully operational, it's going to be a starlink game changer.
States spending trillions for rural broadband are wasting money.

Typical Nazi, giving people access to cheap internet plans

Had Starlink at my home with 5 tvs/games streaming. Haven’t seen a difference with att fiber. Att was just cheaper. If Starlink starts offering this low, they could make a huge dent in the market.

Pretty good deal for those in rural areas.
Amazon's project Kuiper service will start rolling out soon as well.
Competition with be great for consumers. Rumors they will offer 400mbit around 50/mo

Starlink will change the world. It might turn things around in Africa.

Starlink will never have such capacity and was never designed to.

I guess I should sell all my ATT stock.

The problem with Africa is its full of Africans. If you ever go there you’ll be shocked at the cultcha

46 countries in Africa will have starlink by 2026.

LEO satellite Internet not really a competitor for hard wired companies like ATT.
There are targeted more at rural areas for now and other specific mobile use cases.
Generally you can get cheaper, faster and more reliable Internet from your local provider if you can.
That being said ATT as an investment is another story

It's in my dividend portfolio.

Most urban areas in Africa are dominated by mobile, which has Internet.
Not sure starlink is changing much there, but rural areas could be massive. But that's a limited use case.

They can’t distribute rice efficiently how are they going to give out internet equipment?

I saw someone trying to use a payphone in Louisiana the other day.

We’ve pumped trillions into that failed geopolitical dumpster fire, and it hasn’t moved the needle at all. If anything it’s worse than it was 100 years ago. I don’t think cheap widely available internet is going to be the magic pill.

Be careful of the weather resilient claim. It's like Direct TV. Heavy thunderstorms and weather clouds definitely causes problems.

Akchually :)
Starlink can surpass long distance land based communication speeds. At least that is what some YT video told me.
