Why not just build some very large/tall high-power towers?
no, try doing in the middle of the ocean, and if that was cheap on land, it would already have been done, there where even subsidy to do that in most countries

What’s the benefit of satellite internet?
ppl where willing to pay >10X more for >10X lower data.
Think having boats to get actual current weather information, or being to able to call for help on places where there is no connection.
