Who in the actual fuck still uses satellite? Are they also still on dial-up? Do they have a rotary phone at home in lieu of cell phones?
What? millions and millions of people? Do you realize not everyone lives in a city? Satellite TV is insanely popular in Canada. Every single provider offers it.
They have WISP and Starlink also. Both using satellites.
Not sure why you think a satellite is some ancient technology lmao. It's the norm outside of cities.
