Interesting - was just reading this morning about Astranis & their low-orbit satellites to supply more of the world with broadband
Seems like a tie-in, although Electric Thrusters themselves look bigger than the satellites right now.
That's everything I know about both subjects, so no idea if this is a useful comment or not :-)
Astranis is launching satellites to GEO [1], i.e., not low.

You're right. The article I read was more business oriented and used both terms, and I didn't notice.
