If you would read your own article, Verizon has won the contract, not Musk and SpaceX. He’s trying to change this with his DOGE Clownshow

Yes this was a joke about how SpaceX Equipment doesn’t work in bad weather and it’s completely stupid to use this instead of fiber communications like in the Verizon Contract

In a developed nation you would need to put up such a contract to tendering.

Also who needs Air Traffic Control communications working during bad weather anyway?
