      It’s not a mode of thinking it’s a fact. As of this moment there’s no one who is even close to being a competitor to them. I’m not saying there can’t be one, but there isn’t one right now.

        I am not denying Starlink and SpaceX have a dominant market position.

        When I said “this is a very soviet mode of thinking,” I meant that it’s unreasonable to think that they are unbeatable.

        This is just one thing, but if you use Starlink or SpaceX you have to deal with Americans and Americans cannot be trusted.

        Being a reliable partner is a competitive advantage and has an impact on the cost function of a given relationship. Americans (government or companies) are not reliable.
