SpaceX is reportedly in discussions to gain access to a large number of US cell sites—targeting at least 80,000—in order to build a new wireless network. Bloomberg Technology reports that SpaceX is talking with cellular infrastructure partners to reach that scale.

Other coverage frames the story around how existing mobile networks may relate to the plan. Seeking Alpha specifically says that AT&T, Verizon and T-Mobile are dropping from consideration, while Channel NewsAsia highlights a Bloomberg report about SpaceX seeking access to the cell sites.

Taken together, the articles focus on negotiations behind the scenes and the targeted number of sites, while differing on which carriers are mentioned and how directly they are connected to the reported talks.
