Starlink is a centralized internet provider just like all the others.
It's nice to have multiple options, backups, and redundancies, but don't be lulled into thinking that you can hook up to Starlink and trust that you'll never get surveilled, censored, or booted.
Musk in particular is absolutely willing to play ball federal authorities and would without question provide backdoor access to at least allow surveillance.
