Starlink is going to be huge! and many telecom companies should be worried about this. Companies like Sasktel, NorthwestTel (and any equivalent region specific carrier) will be hit hard when this launches. This will even get political, will there be a black market for antennas in China? to bypass the Great Firewall? Will people smuggle it into North Korea? I'm REALLY looking forward to seeing how this pans out!
It's also very self-serving for every business Elon runs as well. He'll be able to enable every Tesla vehicle and SpaceX shuttle with access to the system. With the Starlink antennas being a flat array, it'll make it easy for them to incorporate this into future builds of the vehicles.
The key for this to be an insanely successful, is to make it as accessible as easy as possible for the average home to sign up.
