Unfortunately for country people with little or no phone coverage, Starlink offers the only reliable means of communication. And we are now in bushfire season so there’s that 😬

True. Satellite communications systems do have significant advantages, particularly in relation to linking people at a fixed cost regardless of distance. It's a pity though that Australia doesn't have the capacity to implement our own services for country folk such that we need to rely on Musk.
