> X billion people don't care because they don't use the internet/can't afford

But nearly all 7.8 billion live under the night sky and see 'moving stars'. And that's why I think a global vote would come out saying 'no'.

You'd also get a no to gay and trans rights

Vanishingly few of those people have any idea what a satellite is, let alone that they may be visible in the night sky. The vast majority of the global population leans on religion or superstition to explain natural phenomenon. If you know what a star even is, you're in the minority. You might as well flip a coin, because very few people on the planet would even understand the question.

I think you're right that the vote would be no, but not for the same reason you do.

I think many people reading:

> Would you like to have 10,000 satellites launched

... would stop right there and say "I have no idea what that is, so no"
