    I didn’t mean to imply the suit isn’t legitimate. I’m sure out of all of them Starlink is the worst because Elon is such a fucking moron. I’m just not going to cheer the winner either way. I’m glad all the bad guys are fighting and I hope they have a bad quarter over it.

      I am not an expert, but I am assuming that the interference would slow down mobile data, lower sound quality on mobile phone calls, and probably more dropped calls. Much as I hate AT&T, I am on their side for this one. An “an 18% average reduction in network downlink throughput” sounds significant to me.
