With a name like "BlackSky" they're not even trying to hide how evil they are.

Huh, when I see BlackSky I think of the BlueSky derivative designed to be friendlier to black people.

last week there were posts about how starlink satellites will f up the view of the night sky, so when I see "blacksky" and it's about satellites, I think we won't be able to see the stars
