Comment on Russia’s Starlink use sparks probe into SpaceX compliance with US sanctions

  Is this a rational discussion about what may be actually happening here in reality, or is this a circlejerk where everybody just repeats what we already know, which is that Elon sucks as a person? Let's not become Reddit.

    If you actually read what I said rather than what he responded and actually read the link he posted, you'll see that I didn't say he deactivated anything, I said he denied the service for an ally.

    Elon explicitly denied to activate starlink in locations requested by Ukraine with a bullshit excuse that that would support war, while now making no qualms of Russia using the service for war.

      JFC. This mess where Russian forces are using StarLink is exactly why they didn’t want to turn service on in those locations in the first place!

      Practically speaking there’s no fucking way to tell the difference between two SL terminals one being used by Russian’s and the other by Ukrainian’s, when both forces use the same language, are using them for the same things, the terminals are so close to each other, and many of the terminals are being paid for by 3rd parties!

      The people that can’t see past the end of their nose were pissing their pants over it last summer so Starlink said “Fuck it, you want it? You got it!” and turned the service on in the areas requested by Ukraine.

      Now that same group of diaper wearing mouth breathers are shitting themselves because the Russian’s are SURPRISE…using Starlink.

      Do you want the damn system off? Because that’s the ONLY way to guarantee that the Russian’s can’t use it.

      That wasn't my point. I'm just getting sick of seeing "Elon sucks" everywhere with no substance. We fucking get it already. You're preaching to the choir on the fediverse.

      What are you talking about? Are you lost in the thread responding to the wrong person? I made no edits to my comment.
