In 2023, radio astronomers discovered that satellites from SpaceX's Starlink constellation were emitting signals far outside the frequency bands that the internet service is authorized to use.
IMHO the concept of Starlink is not a bad idea, but it should be nationalized for security reasons: one person should not have this kind of control over foreign policy (although with Trump in the White House it's kinda going from the frying pan to the fire). Also, if Starlink were a single system non-profit, we could have affordable internet for all AND we wouldn't have competing systems so there would be fewer satellites and less environmental impact.
In that big jigsaw puzzle that is the end of the world, this is an interesting piece you just popped into place. How many ways do these billionaires have that destroy our planet for their financial gain? How quickly are we de-accelerating, stopping and going backwards in the inevitable decline of civilization so these men can grow their obscene fortunes?
Honestly, here's my solution: shoot the satellites down. Start with Starlink.

What's so sad is I am not surprised
add to that the debris from spent Starlink satellites that are de-orbited https://www.science.org/content/article/burned-satellites-are-polluting-atmosphere
