Isn't the proximity problem only a real issue for geostationary satellites? But in general I agree it's not the best idea; besides a bunch of technical problems

Isn't the proximity problem only a real issue for geostationary satellites? But in general I agree it's not the best idea; besides a bunch of technical problems it could always get shot down (even if unlikely)... A more realistic scenario would probably be connecting wireless mesh networks and ethernet cable networks (and sometimes fiber cables).
