Cool. Love the retro look of this map from 2015 from TeleGeography:

Starlink will trump and supercede the cabled internet. Starlink satellite internet is projected to be the first satellite internet provider to equal or even surpass cable internet providers in speed and accessibility

Will @elonmusk and @SpaceX make this obsolete with Starlink?

Starlink will make this system look ancient

Psalms 19:3 There is no speech nor language, where their voice is not heard. 4Their line is gone out through all the earth, and their words to the end of the world. In them hath he set a tabernacle for the sun,

Soon nearly all internet traffic will be by satellite.

Like to see how they run that.

Didn’t even know that submarines even hád cables 🧐

Why do all depictions of earth make it appear perfectly round instead of its true shape? It's almost as bad as "flat earthers."
