I wouldn't give Common Sense Skeptic much thought as he is a known Elon hater.However i found this link that debunks his video pretty well.https://littlebluena.substack.com/p/common-sense-skeptic-debunking-starlink

Where is the flaw in their logic?
With Starlink, passengers will be able to access high-speed, low-latency internet from the moment they walk on their plane → https://starlink.com/aviation
Starlink's low-profile Aero Terminal features an electronically steered phased array antenna, which enables new levels of reliability, redundancy and performance.
SpaceX rolls out Starlink Aviation, an inflight WiFi service targeting largely private jets, with deliveries expected to start in mid-2023.Deposit: $5,000Hardware fee: $150,000Service: $12,500 to $25,000 per monthRead more: cnbc.com/2022/10/19/spa…
Starlink Aviation service:-up to 350 Mbps per plane-down to 20 ms latency-unlimited data-"global coverage"-installation not included
William Blair notes Starlink Aviation "appears to be too big and too expensive to challenge” to challenge $GOGO business jet market, with Morgan Stanley writing the new product "highlights growing competitiveintensity" in inflight WiFi.
Indonesia’s head to head satellite broadband match — SpaceX Starlink allied with domestic telco PT Telkom versus satellite fleet operator Pasifik Satelit Nusantara (PSN) — will test whether a Starlink partnership of this kind is a winning strategy against an established local satellite broadband provider.PSN Chief Executive Adi Adiwoso, who has long said global LEO broadband constellations will be unable to compete against national satellite operators with geostationary-orbit assets for remote markets, said he’s confident that the Starlink-PT Telkom association will run . . .
@elonmusk elon musk in Africa🥳with starlikk pretty sure in this sector Malawi is going to change 😅
Regarding the development of low-orbit satellites, the five major telecommunications companies in China have previously called on the National Communications Commission (NCC) to express their positions. The industry expects that the low-orbit satellite industry will improve the landing mechanism. That is, the direct shareholding cannot exceed 49%. Second, low-orbit satellites have strategic considerations, and matchmaking should be encouraged to cooperate with domestic companies. Third, the government must have the ability to monitor and master the information gate communication to ensure the security of national information.
Here are the expected conditions for Taiwan to accept Starlink and the other Mega LEOs. I would imagine that if Taiwan holds to these conditions, SpaceX will not be interested in providing service. Just too much trouble for little gain.QuoteRegarding the development of low-orbit satellites, the five major telecommunications companies in China have previously called on the National Communications Commission (NCC) to express their positions.

SpaceX are fulfilling Starlink orders in northern Alaska and Canada and service can seemingly now be ordered anywhere in Alaska (71.3 N) or Canada (82.5 N)! Even in Alert, NU -- the most northern inhabited place in the world! cc @SawyerMerritt @Megaconstellati @mikepuchol
Notably, $SATS says Hughes broadband subscribers declined by 61,000 from end of Q2.With a veiled reference to Starlink: "Current capacity limitations as well as competitive pressures are impacting consumer subscriber levels."
.@EchoStar's @HughesNet lost 19% of consumer broadband subs in 2 years. A year from 500-Gbps Jupiter 3, focus is on robust enterprise market. S-band strategy still unclear, says direct-to-handset deals so far not much of a business.
Starlink is now able to serve additional communities across Alaska, Canada, and the polar region that previously didn't have access to reliable, high-speed, low-latency internet →
