^^ this. In America the only vote that really matters is the one you do with your wallet.

But what launch provider should I use then?

Boeing? No, I don’t think so.

And be locked down to awful local companies? Starlink was cheaper, faster and more reliable than the Canadian alternatives

I know it’s not always the case, but even then, it’s a global choice versus a local one when it comes to travelling beyond just boats and giving a guaranteed service

Edit: Woah. Wireless Internet has a lot of issues in Canada, limited speeds, slowdowns, hidden fees… You get rid of that by paying double and getting also double the speed and without anything else hidden

Albeit you’re stuck to starlink services, but that’s just a downside of satellite internet

If you’re on a boat… fair enough.

Otherwise, look into WISPs… Wireless Internet Service Providers. Great for rural areas, the infrastructure is point-to-point radios, so it’s super easy to go large distances without the cost of fiber or copper cables.

Best part is, if you have any neighbors that are interested, they’ll often give you a discount if you let them put a sector antenna on your barn/silo. Or they can also erect a short tower if you let them too.

If there aren’t any in your immediate area, reach out to ones nearby. They’re always looking to expand.

If it were that simple, and they were comparable/better than starlink, they’d be a lot more prominent than they are, no? You’re leaving out information.

Because criminalizing having a different political view definitely sustains democracy.
