Inexpensive Worldwide "Internet" for Cruisers.

You've already heard of SpaceX's Starlink with ~300mb low latency bandwidth for $99/mo, but at the other end of the spectrum is a new service that has just launched called Swarm. If your goal is to simply send out small packets such as location or telemetry information, then this may be for you.
