Just a small, albeit useful, little detail that I missed in Ofcom's Connected Nations report last month - "more homes are taking up satellite broadband, with around 42,000 UK customers connected to Starlink’s satellite service (up from 13,000 last year) – the majority in rural areas."
This is from their total of 2.2 million+ customers around the world - of which more than 1.3 million are in the United States. But I've not seen the UK figure before, and it shows the impact they're having, despite the high service cost. Still, I'd hope those using Starlink in the UK will eventually be covered by FTTP, although some of their base will of course include motor homes, cruise ships and smaller boats.
