Starlink in India soon

not going to happen. motabhi will not let it happen.
There are bigger motabhais.
What if Trump wins vote today, he is chummy with Elon and take it up as a news piece to attack Indian business policies ? Voice against Indian tariff structure was there in his debates (this is relevant because there are rampant discussion about possible devaluation of US$ in one way or other).
Even otherwise, BSNL is adding more users and private players are losing users.
 
Auction players sad because they can't take advantage of monopoly to loot people.
Supreme Court judgement in 2G case mandated auctions for spectrum allocation.

However, there are technical difficulties with auctioning of satellite spectrum.

Most countries have gone with administrative allocation. Some tried auctioning then reverted to administrative allocation.

Whether auction happens or administrative allocation will depend on judicial scrutiny, and not on the government decision.
 
yeah no, i dont want Musk or his cronies anywhere near here, people who think Adani/Ambani are bad, havent clearly seen what this shit for brains moron is capable of
All his haters (dime a dozen jealous types) can't accomplish any of things he has :happy:


Recently on Rogan too check him out.

Technological innovations he brings forward definitely deserves recognition, but his views on humanity needs retrospection. But, such is the world we are in.
 
Starlink lowest price for it is in Nigeria costs $23 a month. Japan and france and most of small EU nations its about $43 to 45$.

In Sri lanka it costs $50.

So its not going to compete with 5g on price.

What exactly has he said about humanity that is negative.
 
yes, jio laid fiber optics in almost nook and corners, focused in tier 2/3 cities, and then we have bsnl as well. plans hovering around 500rs. only.
the business strength of jio is their massive reach and the vast number of customers they have.

starlink seems to provide very week value proposition to me at this time, unless they can bring themselves to provide cheap services and simulate the tactics what TataSky did back in days.
But again Jio will ensure this doesn't happen... they can go very aggressive with airfiber.

A college in my area pays 80k a year for satelite internet. That what I heard. 4mbps plan. It will work well for businesses.

Yup, Such Businesses and people are the target market for Starlink not existing Fibre areas. There are tons of areas in India and the other parts of World where there is no fibre.

in remote areas one can take connection and then sublease it to others and it wud be cheaper that way and not everyone will have to buy it then but speed will be limited though but better than nothing i guess. Don't know if sublease like this wud be allowed though.

Right so Musk is not stepping on any toes here.

5. acquiring Tesla when it had its tech right but was in financial troubles? and has been tanking Tesla's stock from the past 2 years because his mouth his making promises that the company cant cash? *cough* Cybertruck *cough* robo-taxis
6. Doing the fastest speed-run in the history of mankind of tanking a company's value to zero? *cough* Twitter
7. blatantly committing election fraud and bribing people to vote for republican?
8. being a traitor to his country? supporting a mass murderer masquerading as a dictator and sucking China's dick? https://www.wsj.com/world/russia/musk-putin-secret-conversations-37e1c187?mod=hp_lead_pos7

Like this is what I dont get with people like you, last time you asked me for proof on Elon banning people on twitter for personal reasons/bigotry. I gave you plenty and what was your defense? iT'S HiS pLAtFOrM, like brother, atleast be consistent in your arguments? i couldnt respond to you last time because mods locked the post so here it is.

ah yeah, the far right bumfuck who rallied his audience against taking covid vaccine but back-pedalled real quick when people who know their shit confronted him by saying that hE's jUSt a cOMeDIAn?
the same ****ing idiot who started the hoax that schools placed cat litter in classrooms because "students identified as cats" when it was so that if a shooting happens, students can relieve themselves (seriously what the **** America?)

These areas are those with low economic activity, not much money to be made there especially in a country like India. I can't think of any place today without cell towers. If the people there are willing and capable of paying for better internet, JIO/Airtel would have already put a tower there, or upgraded exisiting cell network there to 4g/5g.

Layoff reddit and their BS personal attacks. If this is the best you got from there you better look elsewhere.

Exhibit A that isn't worth wasting time with because the abusive tone is a dead giveaway ALL of it is weak. This is how a teenager argues.

You came up with 20 reasons which you copy pasted. That many reasons already clued me that the reasons are all weak. That's why so many are needed. Then I started examining them and pointed out the weaknesses with the first ten. And junked the rest of it.

Your response was to throw some hissy fit and attack me instead of defending your position.

I mean how could you. You weren't presenting your own arguments but parroting someone else's rather poor attempt at it. You were unwilling to spend any of your own time because you know nothing other than you don't like him.

All drama you made was an attempt to save your face. You aren't fooling anyone with these personal attacks whose intent is appeals to emotions. Not reason. I'm quite familiar with this style of argumentation and is used typically when a case is weak.

There are plenty of people bashing Elon once they discovered his political leanings. Before that he was fine. So you can see how self serving the attacks are.

See again how he launched into personal attacks like some bot :)

He didn't watch the video at all. So he is recycling the earlier drivel again. Kamala does not have the attention span to survive a 3h interview with Rogan. Trump, Vance & Elon all went through it.

This is why Trump is 47 as of now and Elon is going to have a role in his government.

Elon was the first to endorse Trump after the assassination attempt. His decision to go with twitter was also a good call because twitter now has more credibility with him in charge than the legacy media. Having used twitter for several years I can attest what is said below is true


That is the fallout from this US election

I would refrain foreign players in Indian satellite internet business .They will kind of control the communication which is bad .US can indirectly fund it and get easy access. This stupidity has to be stopped.
