Frankenstein’ rabbits with horrifying spikes growing from their heads are invading the US — and experts warn to stay away

In a move set to transform internet accessibility in Kenya, Starlink has announced a significant reduction in the price of its internet kits. Starting today, the price of a Starlink Kit has been slashed to KES 29,999, effective until August 14. This reduction follows an initial price cut in April, which saw a surge in purchases from Kenyans across diverse backgrounds seeking reliable internet connections, particularly in underserved areas.
Gen-2 Hardware Kits Readily Available
Gen-2 hardware kits have been readily available through Jumia Online and physically at Naivas supermarkets, contributing to rapid adoption among Kenyan consumers. The ease of acquisition through these popular outlets has played a pivotal role in the widespread uptake of the service.
Affordable Data Plan
Starlink recently introduced a new data plan priced at KES 1,300 per month, featuring a 50GB data cap – making it the most affordable option in the market compared to all local telco plans offering similar data allowances. This is a huge offering for many Kenyans who cannot justify the KES 6,500 monthly fee. It also means you can just be getting the hardware and using the data when necessary, as a backup plan. Users have reported being able to pay for Starlink with M-Pesa easily.
Positive Response and Future Impact
The response on social media to the price reduction has been overwhelmingly positive, yet some consumers are advocating for even lower prices, reflecting a strong demand for more accessible internet solutions from SpaceX. As Starlink continues to adjust its pricing strategy, the impact on internet connectivity across Kenya is expected to be profound, offering more individuals and businesses the chance to connect to high-speed, reliable internet service.
