Space Exploration Technologies Corp.'s (SpaceX) Starlink satellite-based internet service Starlink has received strong support from Gigabit Libraries Network (GLN). The GLN is a collection of libraries worldwide that aim to modernize and bring technological advancement to libraries. Starlink and GLN announced an agreement earlier this month through which the internet service will deliver connectivity to three public libraries in rural America to test the feasibility of using Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellites. In a filing made with the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) last week, the GLN's director Mr. Don Means urged the Commission not to allocate the 12GHz spectrum to terrestrial service providers, siding with Starlink in a row that has been going for more than a year now.
