Starlink Puts the Last Nail in Burning Man’s Coffin

The article discusses the impact of Starlink, SpaceX's satellite internet service, on Burning Man, the annual counterculture event held in the Nevada desert. The article suggests that Starlink's presence at Burning Man has put the "last nail in the coffin" for the event, which has faced other challenges in recent years, such as the destruction of the Orgy Dome. The article highlights the irony of Starlink, a technology that aims to provide internet access to remote areas, being present at an event that has traditionally prided itself on being off-grid and disconnected from the outside world. The presence of Starlink is seen as a symbol of the increasing commercialization and technology-driven nature of Burning Man, which some argue is at odds with the event's core values and principles. The article does not provide any specific details or data to support the claim that Starlink's presence has put the "last nail in the coffin" for Burning Man. It remains a subjective assessment of the impact of this technology on the event.
