"to pump up subscriber numbers prior to an IPO" so here's a tip: how about offering a half price plan, with only a tenth of the speed. (10 times the money off of the same bandwidth!)
I live in the boonies, there's nothing available out there. I've been looking pretty heavily at starlink, but it's just too much for my fixed income. What do I really need speed wise? 100 Mbps? I just want to watch some YouTube videos, maybe stream something from hulu or Amazon(Wi-Fi calling for my useless cell phone would be nice too). I can certainly do that with five Mbps, 10 would be gravy.
I'm sure that there are a ton of people in the United States that would be glad to sign up for something with similar stats for similar prices. But I'm just some guy, maybe somebody with a little bit more reach could suggest it to Elon.
