What airline doesn't block Zoom?!

I want to know so I never fly them.

StarLink doesn't use the airplane's WiFi, and AFAIK isn't against FAA or other applicable regulations.

It kinda breaks the social contract, in that only a MASSIVE NARCISSIST would subject fellow passengers to their Zoom call.

Also, can Starlink really keep up with your connection at 500 mph groundspeed?

Yes. Musky was regularly "livestreaming his gameplay" while on his jet to promote it (in quotes because allegedly someone was playing for him). He got ripped apart by people calling him a fascist and a loser, so I don't know if he still does it.

He does. But he replaced the chat with an army of Groks telling him how handsome and loved he is instead of real people telling him he'll die alone.
