What an utter piece of shit.

    When you have a contract with the federal government it comes with stipulations. Don’t “private citizen” this. It’s not a mom and pop store.

      But Starlink DIDN’T have a contract with the US government, DOD, or Ukraine government. That’s the point. And they went ahead and used it for guided munitions.

      Which is a violation of the terms of service and not what anyone at SpaceX had intended.

      Problem is, that’s exactly how they ended up being used!

        You’re tracking that Starlink sells service directly to the US military for activities that aren’t exactly tickle parties right?

        • True, but didn’t Starshield happen after this stuff? I guess I need to relook at the timeline. But as I remember things, he started tossing starlink access at Ukraine, tried to get DoD to pay, they chose not to. Then he started to these games, and after that DoD started paying up. Starshield was announced a little bit after that.
