We paid $900 million in taxes to subsidize rural access to Starlink in one year lol
We also paid $42 billion in taxes for ISPs to roll out broadband access in a 2021 bill, and it hasn't connected a single person to the internet
Before that, we paid $400 billion to ISPs to do the same thing with the same results
- sysguest 7mo agowtf was this a upfront lump-sum money? well even if I was the ISP, I'd just take the money and make the job "take forever"
