Have to keep telling myself why people will prefer fiber over Starlink:
Trees
Snow
Visual antenna blight (but that will not work for Wisps)
Possibly worse latency (I hope).
Weather? (will Storms knock it out)
I am actually excited for the tribal areas in Utah that have school kids
without internet. Not like we did not try to serve them. But tribes are
problematic to work with. Some tribal areas still don't have electricity.
Not like there is not lots of programs to pay for this stuff.
But tribes ... are ... problematic ...

I don't think Starlink will go in for predatory pricing. They have more
customers than they can handle and I'd say they have a strong upward pricing
pressure rather than the opposite.
However, things could get interesting if they manage to get their hands on
large amounts of government subsidies.
