SPACEX PLANS TO LAUNCH STARLINK MOBILE SERVICE IN THE US
Summary from the TLDR newsletter
SpaceX plans to launch a new Starlink mobile service for customers in the US. The company is considering building its own terrestrial mobile network in the country. The new retail offering would put SpaceX in direct competition with Verizon, AT&T, and T-Mobile. Some analysts say that the idea may be a gamble to extract better deals from the company's telecom partners, as it would cost billions of dollars to roll out the required infrastructure.
