I don't think rurp was saying there is no market, just that there was no obvious realistic TAM worth 1.6 trillion (going by the amount given by the S-1). How many people living remotely in an area with no fibre do you really expect there to be?

In the future, nobody will have to work (thanks AI!) and we'll all be digital nomads roaming the earth living off of 0DTE option gainz and UBI. /s

The owner of starlink is planning to be the only remaining capitalist. UBI is not for the US, a return to indentured servitude is.

The nice thing about there only being one capitalist is that it’ll be easy for the rest of us to deal with him.

You folks are both mentally ill, and extremely misinformed.

One might say brainwashed…
