That's what I'm alluding to by saying de facto. The silicon valley/US playbook is first mover advantage then use endless 0% interest rates to operate at a loss if necessary until there's no one able to compete creating a US monopoly.

That's privilege and market distortion from the monopoly that is government. Not a monopoly on space.
Maybe you're alil confused I don't think anyone is saying a monopoly on space. The monopoly talked about here is the first company to deploy space based internet services first. Using that to get first mover advantage like uber did.
That's not a monopoly. That's just an entrepreneur taking 100% market share. The two are not the same, unless that's what you define as a monopoly, your own definition. It's economics.
