Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that Starlink home internet relies on terrestrial cell towers to deliver service?

No. Multiple sources describe Starlink as a satellite-based internet service delivered via low Earth orbit satellites, with one reference explicitly stating it provides satellite-based connectivity while competing with terrestrial broadband providers. None of the placed items indicate reliance on terrestrial cell towers.
