Update: Satellite Broadband Is Still Going Nowhere
We interrupt your continued complete lack of concern about this particular topic to let you know that, indeed, satellite broadband services are going nowhere. While they've been able to hang on for a bit, the rise of wireless broadband should finally kill off a technology that never had much of a future to begin with. We will now return to stories about other wireless technologies that actually do get press attention, but which might not have much of a chance either.
Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.
–The Techdirt Team
