Watching Zelensky get told to eat shit is so pleasing.
SpaceX Starlink has become the connectivity backbone of Ukraine all the way up to the front lines. This is the damned if you do part.
However, we are not allowing Starlink to be used for long-range drone strikes. This is the damned if you don’t part.

Why should the US give giant government contracts to a company working directly against our national security interests? https://t.co/B1JDKSmKyC

Elon was giving them free service, and now they are pissed he’s not allowing them to kill people with it…
If they don’t like it, they can just build their own satellite network.
Isn’t that how it works?
Given the recent reports of Ukraine using drones to drop poison gas canisters on Russian soldiers, I think Elon is 100% justified cutting them off.
