If SpaceX has anything to say about it, low orbit satellite internet will soon provide gigabit speeds the world over far faster and cheaper than laying fiber could. |
This would be amazing, but this kind of story has been told over and over. Not like its impossible, but how reliable it really ends up, how much it really costs, and how long before it gets here are the big q's. If this doesn't happen for another 20 years, in reality, it might as well not happen at all in NA because the rural area's will be ghost towns by then. In today's world, things like the internet completely change the game, and those who don't change with it sooner than later, will be left behind for good. The world changes too fast to wait nowadays, and people need to realize this and change the system to account for it. If the rural communities are aloud to vanish, people are going to end up hungry or less wealthy.
About 6 years ago we had satellite internet, and it truly wasn't much better than dial up, yet cost 4 times as much. Everything we were told and sold said it was supposed to be the future proof high speed answer, but clearly it wasn't. Not even close. Now if there is anybody who can actually make this happen, it's Musk, but even he has a bit of trouble with deadlines.
