On one hand, fuck Musk. On the other hand, internet from space that can't be blocked by governments is a net positive in my book.

How is a billionaire manchild in charge any better, at least a government is accountable to the people.

In theory, but how many governments can actually be held accountable? The power imbalance is often too great for the people to hold anyone accountable. In many countries, the system is rigged.

Replace government with billionaire and your statement is made even more true.
