I hope that doesn't happen, we already have enough electronic waves affecting us, I don't a sky grid of these satellites would be good for the health of earth and it's inhabitants.
 Quoting: LTHN.


Yes but the way that elon would do it would most likely be the most environmentally safe way. Compared to our existing systems who probably couldn't give a rats ass about anything other than money.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 73375036


True. If we could discontinue all legacy wireless tech in favor of this..
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 72372485


Well the article does say low cost. How low we don't know yet. If lower than the existing system, as well as quality signals, the legacy wireless would be forced out of the marketplace. I know quite a few Canadians who would have no qualms with seeing Rogers and bell go the way of the dinosaurs.

"Private rocket launch service SpaceX has asked the U.S. government for permission to launch 4,425 satellites in orbit to beam high-speed Internet down to the world, according to a newly filed application with the Federal Communications Commission (FCC).

That's a hell of a lot of satellites; in fact, the figure surpasses the total number of satellites in the Earth's orbit."

Somehow I can see it costing by as pages money and no telling what it is doing to our Sky's. In addition this will allow him to gain superiority of the internet content.

Our taxpayer money undoutably will go to bailing out that failing Solar company of his cousin. It is already in the process.

This is where the mind control is coming from... Read Sattelite Terrorism by Dr.John Hall for a primer.. They are already there under brand names like Iridium... They track phones and cars and can target victims with mood altering radio frequencies . Living underground or in a shielded environment is the only defense sadly.
