I wish there was a way for the average person to shoot down starlink satellites.
Don't worry, the way things are going the star link satellites are going to shoot themselves. Unfortunately together with everything else in the low orbit.
what do you mean fiber "plans"? do you guys not have fiber?
I live in a backwater northern U.K. town. We have fibre. I’d have thought somewhere like USA was rolling it out to most places.

katy says spacex should go fuck themselves and go bankrupt
Weird, that sounds anti-competitive.
No
A bunch starlink modems in an area can overload or whatever the nearby satellite. This is not feasible in its current form.
