Dan said SpaceX will need at least 4-6 years to fully build out its Starlink Mobile U.S. carrier network
Elon replied it will take 2 or 3 years
so Who is correct ?

Both are right, as they are talking about at what efficiency their company work.
@fw Doesn’t have to. FCC is in the orange man with tiny hands back pocket. And Elon is giving away hundreds of millions to further his agenda
@hz Why wait that long? Do a proof of concept today. Prove everyone wrong .. or right. Time to nut up or shut up.
Yet more sads to the naysayers,
Looks like Musk can do it in a year now:

@fc Elon groupies don’t believe in such things as regulations and physics. I’m surprised he didn’t eliminate the FCC while he was with DOGE.
Yall forgot there is regulatory issues and almost the entire east coast from nc up is blue and entire west coast is blue and they are not elon fans.
I would say Dan because his predictions are always eerily accurate. It’s almost as if he is a visionary that can see into the future.
If Musk builds it the "telecom way" then yes 6 years.
Does anyone believe he will do it their way?
Show me one - just 1 - thing that Dan did right ....What does he know about anything ... he is a paid actor.
He was brought in to do the dirty work, to be the patsy when the thing will come crashing down.
By then he will be out, senile, and retired. Well, he is semi senile now... but that is another thing.
Elon has access to the money necessary to make 2-3 years happen and is petulant enough to do it at a loss just to prove he can. That man holds genuine power, financially and by influence. To a dangerous extent, not just toward our industry but toward humanity.
@a9 Yeah, if someone still believe the nonsense of physics limitations, they are locking their heads in the Faraday cage
elon is amazing, talented, practical, crazy and a liar.
Who knows if Elon is right ..it doesn’t matter. Verizon responding says it all.
I cannot wait for that 35mb cell service to become reality.
I’m going with the guy building electric cars and rockets. And Chris Flood of course-🤫
LMAO. Bet on Danny Boy or Elon Musk to deliver. I am going with the guy capturing rockets from outer space. If any of you buy into the nonsense our executives say, you have your head buried so far in the sand I am surprised you can breathe.
Elon did a fine job with DOGE - they saved us a ton of money, eliminated waste, reduced the admin apparatus. It took him less than three months.
According to Chris flood, Elon doesn’t know how hard it is to run a telco company
It's not the Midnight Dbag
@a3 ditto - he sc--wed me over once with that 'full self drive' label back in 2018. at that time the car was unable to even park itself, now it's a bit better but it's still pure sh-t. i still want my $6K back, the dude is the proverbial baron munchausen
Idk but I don't believe a word that comes out of Elon Musk's mouth, so
Dan is just saying that for PR but he has no knowledge of what technology Elon has. Look at how many companies have doubted Musk on Tesla and Space X.
So Dan is basically spitting salad to cover the shareholders, won’t be here once Starlink mobile has taken over.
