We’ve re-written this introduction a few dozen times.

We tried to make it about the EV world — about how one company’s success didn’t just kick-start a global EV sales race, but also made the world’s wealthiest man.

We tried to explain how, enriched by those successes, that same man has used his wealth to cajole and influence politicians and policy. How he has amplified conspiracy theories, spread misinformation, and helped usher in a U.S. administration that is, frankly, fascistic in its treatment of minorities, citizens, and other countries alike.

But we’ve failed to make that work.

So instead, let’s focus on the meat of the matter.

For the last few years, we — reluctantly — have relied on Starlink, alongside a local independent ISP, to provide the internet Transport Evolved needs to produce and upload videos.

Our initial decision to use Starlink came from a lack of adequate speed from our local provider. But thanks to improvements at that ISP — and some recent news regarding that same billionaire — we’ve decided we have to act unilaterally.

Here’s why — and what’s next.
