With revenue nearly tripling in two years, millions of new subscribers and billion-dollar deals, Starlink dominates the global satellite internet market — but tariffs, canceled contracts and political challenges could put it all at risk!
We already knew that Starlink was going to be a hit, but perhaps not even Elon Musk expected such absurd growth. In just a few years, the company has become a true satellite internet giant, connecting millions of people around the world and closing contracts that make anyone's eyes pop.
The numbers speak for themselves: Starlink's revenue has nearly tripled in two years, and its subscriber base has already surpassed 4,6 million. By 2024, it is expected that another 3 million users will join the game, pushing profits even higher. If you continue at this rate, the company could surpass 12 billion euros in revenue by the end of 2025. That's something no one can find fault with!
Starlink's partnership with Apple and global dominance
If there's one thing Musk knows how to do well, it's forming strategic partnerships. And the alliance with Apple proves it. Now, iPhones will be able to access Starlink's satellite internet, opening up a huge range of possibilities.

- Google acquires Wiz for $32 billion, marking the largest acquisition in the group's history
- Organizations pressure Congress to overturn Lula's vetoes on offshore wind power law
- More oil! Petrobras finds evidence of oil in front of the city of Santos
This puts Starlink in a prominent position, not only in the telecommunications sector, but worldwide. After all, we are talking about a network of more than 7.000 satellites in orbit, covering remote regions, cities, ships, planes and even military bases.
The big dream: Mars on the radar
Musk has never hidden the fact that his big goal is to colonize Mars, and Starlink could be the key to financing this. crazy plan (or visionary, depending on how you see it). With the money the company generates, it is possible to fund a large part of SpaceX's projects, ensuring that space exploration does not stop any time soon.
But that's not all: in addition to ordinary consumers, Starlink has already conquered strategic sectors such as aviation, maritime transport and even the US Department of Defense. In other words, it's everywhere.
But not everything is perfect…
But, as the old saying goes, “the higher the flight, the harder the fall.” And Starlink is already feeling some turbulence.
First, there is the bureaucratic and regulatory aspect. In the US, new tariffs have been imposed and, in Canada, a contract worth almost 100 million euros was canceled out of the blue. Not to mention the debates about space pollution and the growing concerns about the regulation of Earth's orbit.
And as if that weren't enough, there's the political factor. Musk has always been controversial, and his closeness to Donald Trump has been raising some very unfriendly discussions. Depending on the course of the elections and government decisions, Starlink may face very complicated barriers in the international market.
The Canadian provincial government backtracked the next day and maintained the contract.
This report looks more like Chinese propaganda.
It works well to a certain extent.
The big problem is the monthly subscription costs, which are forced down your throat, and the lack of interlocutors, as no one answers your questions.
