Title: Home Depot starts selling Starlink satellite Internet sets on installments with store pickup option
Post by: Redaktion on May 02, 2023, 15:11:48
SpaceX's Starlink satellite Internet offshoot is expanding its retail footprint with Home Depot availability. The big home improvement store chain is now carrying Starlink starter kits at the same price as SpaceX, with the ability to pay the equipment off on installments and save on shipping costs.

I believe Starlink recently removed the data caps you mention in the article.

Soon there will be no stars visible in the sky because of this debris. But the businessmen are also planning advertising in the sky...

In reality, this should be an exclusive (and expensive service) only for those where it is really difficult to install optics сables (and it can be done almost everywhere except the most remote places). Or where the bandits rule.

The task of commercially covering a significant part of the population of planet with such  internet is initially utopian and absurd. And given what's going on in the sky, it's criminal.

Isn't $120 a month expensive for internet?
