I have no experience with cellular data, wifi or anything like that so I'm pretty ignorant and that's why my question will be as stupid as it probably is.

I'm building off grid. No govt elec, water, gas, land lines, nor cellular signal.. off grid. Would this proposal (if it were real) bring full internet service to someone in my situation?

I doubt it. Other technologies could bring you internet — Direct TV had internet service, it’s satellite based, so you could access it from anywhere in the US.

But this L2 would completely cripple GPS and a huge amount of military systems, airplane nav systems and all the civil sytems depend on GPS.
