These companies are not offering a competitor to Starlink and it doesn't sound like they plan to.. MEO has latency that is 3X higher than LEO, these are not going to be useful for the same things. I read this article the opposite way, it seems this is just a big merger in the industry which will mean less competition. Also mentioned in the article: >Viasat [...] last year purchased Inmarsat I didn't know this happened, but that's another example of a big merger reducing competition. This article seems like some positive spin on an event that would otherwise be construed as bad for customers and the industry as a whole.
