* Rockets costs more than trucks for moving things around * No water in space for cooling/heat transfer * Heat dissipation is difficult because vacuum is the best insulator * How do you repair one? * network bandwidth is probably lower
permits? connectivity?
SpaceX may not looked upon favorably by the next US administration, with regards to permits to get to orbit.

* The hardware is outdated quickly and putting it in space just makes it impossible to replace or service.
* Dissipating the heat generated is a real problem that limits the hardware you can put in one satellite.
* Satellites will always have greater latency and worse bandwidth than land-based connections.
