IMO, the market is rural folks who don’t have fast internet or any other options. Less than 6mbps down is normal in rural Ohio, for example. And there are no other wired options, and existing satellite options aren’t much better. These people can even be just a mile or less outside of a town with internet options, but none of the telecom companies have upgraded capacity in the countryside for years. Obviously, a modern wired connection would be way better, but ISPs are just not willing to invest in the upgraded infrastructure where nearly no one lives. You could lay a mile of fiber to reach only one or two households. (Or less.) Satellite makes a lot of sense here because it can cover the whole area without having to build a ton of infrastructure relative to the population.
