What is satellite internet and why is Starlink causing tension in Kenya?

[@rhymontic]

We need the same pressure for KPLC. Starlink is the best thing that has happened to Kenya. You can now have internet in rural Kenya.

[@kingsolo5009]

KPLC is the best in AFRICA. You can look around and see how our neighbors are doing.
