At 550 km it's more like a few decades-centuries to "naturally" deorbit, especially for big things (like sats) on circular orbits. They plan to burn them all up in the atmosphere. Many tons of weird computer parts and aluminum frame and solar panels deposited in the upper atmosphere every day. What could go wrong? It's not regulated, so nobody knows.

Oh look, we're already detecting it: https://www.pnas.org/doi/full/10.1073/pnas.2313374120
