the view of the night sky is about to be destroyed by companies

Not really. The satellites will be too small to see unaided in general, and their proximity to Earth means that outside of twilight hours, they're generally invisible.

(Also, "destroyed" is a matter of perspective. I think it'd look kind of cool if every twilight you could look up and see a web of satellites drifting quietly overhead ;) ).

no that would not be cool. Not at all
Difference of opinion.
