Apple is actively working on a satellite internet service that will compete with SpaceX’s satellite internet service, known as Starlink, and will allow Apple to beam internet straight to iPhones around the world, removing the need for traditional carrier networks. #AppleInternal

Impressive. But why ? Who will need such a service. By the time such a system will be functional and cost effektive, the civiliced world would be on 6G and the rest on 4g or 5g....,,
That’s not true. SpaceX’s Starlink Beta is already available. The upfront cost of buying the receiver is expensive, but after that you pay around $20 more per month than with regular cable internet. It’s worth it considering that it works almost anywhere in the world.
