  1. Countries that refuse to guarantee fiber to every home so you're not getting it unless the gods (Telia in the case of Estonia) decide you should get it.

I don't like the expression "guarantee fiber to every home", I don't think intervention like that is needed, It's enough if the country guarantees fair competition. But I agree that Starlink lets you bypass local obstacles like local incompetence/corruption or censorship*

* unless it's the kind of censorship that Elon supports, then I am pretty sure Starlink will soon block it as well
