AT&T CEO calls SpaceX phone strategy not viable

Original: AT&T CEO says Elon Musk's SpaceX phone strategy not "viable"

AT&T's chief executive has publicly dismissed Elon Musk's SpaceX direct-to-phone ambitions, saying the strategy is not viable. The comment escalates the rivalry between the telecom giant and Musk's Starlink, which is working to connect standard mobile phones directly via satellites. The remarks come as carriers and satellite operators compete over the future of mobile connectivity in areas without terrestrial coverage.

Why now: Ongoing rivalry between AT&T and SpaceX over direct-to-cell satellite service is making headlines.
