How will the data centers be connected to the Internet? Satellite? Sounds expensive.. Or those cruise ships selling their internet data packages are all lying about how expensive is to have satellite internet..

If they got starlink they're all lying, but they might not have it yet.

They'd pay the commercial rates whatever that is, but either way, they're lying.
