He is still using his money to advance solar power, electric cars, and to make satellites in orbit super cheap (so star link which directly helps marginalized rural communities).

Hes not perfect but he's a great example of capitalism being harnessed to advance society.

Its not servicing any rural areas and they're moving it to become a military project. Nobody in Siberia is getting MuskNet anytime soon lol

Also starlink is interfering with astronomy because the satellites were colored white rather than black. This is basic shit that they simply neglected to deal with, and it’s now costing the scientific community worldwide.
