Spectrum contention is going to be insane in D2D. Starlink already has to constrain the number of broadband accounts per locale to avoid saturation. | ||

Fixed Starlink is competing with fiber/DOCSIS/DSL, though. That's orders of magnitude more bandwidth than people in areas remote enough to not warrant a terrestrial cell base station (which could itself also be backhauled over much more efficient fixed satellite). | ||
