IMO, low orbit satellite relays should be the standard. We need more Elons..lol (or just more satellites)
I think there should be a lot more mesh networks that relay data between local ground structures with some reliance on fiber optic, satellites, and balloons.
These would make local communication much more resilient and resistant to centralized control.

Ya, that's fine on land and in crowded areas (US, EU), but places like Australia or South America or Siberia :-) where you have less people and structures but still need some comms, I think sat coms is the only way... methinks

Yes.
For rural applications, a satellite is the only way.
