There are satellites on a polar orbit, which will cover connections at the poles, but those satellites still cover a lot of non-polar ground.
If polar orbiting satellites are still working we'd expect to see intermittent or degraded connectivity away from the poles rather than complete outage?
I saw some people report that their dishes are pointing in unusual directions so it would explain that, and that my service is fine since I only use the polar orbiting ones ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
