So much space junk up there.
They’ll start crashing into each other and/or breaking down and be landing on our heads.

That could happen, once Elon Musk uses Starship to send factory components and TeslaBots to the Moon, and builds factories on the Moon. Then it is a simple thing to launch satellites from the Moon to Earth orbit. It takes a lot of energy to send tonnage to space from Earth, might as well send factory components from Earth and use Moon materials to build the satellites.
