Wild how fast Starlink filled the sky - what started with Sputnik in '57 has turned into orbital domination by one private company. Is this really just about internet access, or are we watching the quiet privatization of space?

Feels like the frontier isn’t outer space anymore - it’s your data, your freedom.
Yuval Harari has talked about some aspects of this in '21 Lessons for the 21st Century'.
