This is essentially the case for Starlink
i don't think anyone with enough money for shootin clusters of sattelites into orbit will be a free open internet builder. ofc thats an assumption. This network of sattelites would also need to join in and coordinate with other stuff up there, as far as i can tell its pretty crowded and theres collision risks etc.
Except Starlink won't hesitate to censor you as well as the Ukrainians are discovering.
On the one hand, yes. That's why possession of a starlink terminal can get you killed in Iran.
On the other hand, Ukrainians are finding out that someone else is in control of that starlink infra.
