Ok so ask yourself if not space x then who because they are far from the only people that are do this. Other countries to Jeff Bezos are in line. So are you mad at Elon or mad that he was lucky enough to be first. No fuss is gonna stop it, just gonna make more room for China.
This is nuts there not even in their final orbit yet. years ago you were crying about light pollution. Time to STOP giving people free rides for staring at stuff billions of miles away. No more free hand outs to astronomers who steal land.

Stop exaggerating this. This is only an issue whilst in their ascent phase to final orbit and they disperse. You lost 5 minutes of data. An ISS pass would've lasted the same duration and caused just as much disruption with its magnitude.
