[RndTbl] I...am not feeling too well...

You don't want Xplornet to get any bigger - they are a rolling dumpster fire in many different ways.
I think more competition is a good thing, yet I'd prefer Xplornet went out of business altogether.  Or at least nowhere near here.  Thankfully, Starlink will probably accomplish this.
