    Starlink (not listed but is a musk company) is supporting cell service to a large portion of cellular companies in the U.s including T-Mobile and it’s affiliates.

    It’s hard to be a conscientious consumer when broke.

    Tmobile has cheap cell service. Are the alternatives even better? Idk if they use starlink too.

        Do we need cellular services?

        Yes.

        Just from a safety perspective, a transportable communication device is very useful.

          We got along just fine without them before they existed. One generation in, and now they’re “indispensable”.

            We also survived many many years without modern medicine. But that doesn’t mean we don’t need those things.
