Skynet, coming online in 2024! lol
This would be awesome. Though, I do have some concerns about space clutter... considering what we have going on here on earth, I suppose that seems silly, though. Brad

I have my WiFi routers planted on Mars already, waiting for the red planet to be colonized in 2125!

Sounds cool but catastrophic satellite network failure and crash would be nice to avoid.

1. There could be clear areas in the sky that would be launch windows for space launches. How many airplanes are in the sky at any given time now?
2. So many satellite "internet servers" in the sky would create a lot of redundancy and you could just re-aim your antenna. This is actually a very workable idea. |

Space debris is already a massive problem for satellites, the ISS, and astronauts. I would assume they have taken that into consideration. Either way at one point there will be a lot of shit floating up there.
I highly recommend the Elon Musk bio, google: Elon Musk: Tesla, SpaceX, and the Quest for a Fantastic Future Can't post links yet ^ |

To be honest, I don't understand which technology will be used to transmit signals from satellites to land-based devices and back.

Launching 4,425 satellites sounds very expensive. Both Iridium and Globalstar went bankrupt at the start of the millennium because of sky-high ambitions. Revenues were minuscule, while operating expenses and interest payments on billions of dollars of debt were enormous.
When SpaceX goes bankrupt too, there's going to be a lot of space trash and it's going to look like the aerial version of the Great Pacific Garbage Patch.
