Rather than deciding for them from your bubble of privilege in your fiber-connected utopia, you could just ask these poorer countries if it is worth trading global full, high-speed internet access for "not being able to see the big dipper as clearly at night".

Or just watch what they do when presented with the choice.

That you would think to ask this shows how out of touch you are.

The vast majority of people wouldn't think twice if that was the trade-off to get connected.

We should be talking instead of governmental oversight, and whether it makes sense to restrict/regulate satellite constellations for science or culture activities.

I think there should be regulation, but clearly the people and the market wants this, so it's going to happen.

And there is regulation. SpaceX works with astronomers and their satellites are coated to reduce glare and use of sun visors for example.
