For me it’s quantum computing - especially considering its impact on most current encryption methods

    I’m really not looking forward to the commercialization of low earth orbit, and SpaceX seems to be an accelerator of this.

      Low Earth orbit has been heavily commercialized for decades already. If you mean Starlink specifically, what’s wrong with it?

          Ah, that only happens right after launch when they’re still bunched together. Once the satellites get into their final orbit they spread out. The newer models also have anti-reflection systems that make them much harder to spot, SpaceX has been working with astronomers on that.
