Devil's advocate/ hot take: this is peak NIMBY, screwing over rural people half a world away because you don't want to see a few extra stars in the night sky when camping.
- karaterobot 2y agoTo be clear, Starlink isn't really the problem, because the satellite train is ephemeral. My point was just that seeing it gives me an idea of how obscene an actual space advertisement would be. Space isn't in my backyard, it's literally something everyone in the world can see—and I'm not saying it's okay for there to be space advertisements in someone else's backyard either. It's bad for everybody.
