Look on Starlink.com. I don't expect it's much worse than your typpical evil ISP or phone caerrier in terms of privacy. Certainly you could route everything through a VPN and that might help a little.

Edit: oh wait, I confused this thread with a different one when I looked at my inbox. Starlink is a high speed service with a roof antenna. For satellite phone stuff, look at https://skylo.tech.

I can see it now:

"SOS I need help, I'm stuck in an underwater cave just outside Tulum, Mexico and I'm running out of air!"

"Finding your geolocation, we have determined your cave is in New Zealand. Dispatching rescue team to the Mines of Moria."

EDIT: Don't ask me how someone got satellite phone signal in an underwater cave lol.
