      Who do you think suggested the idea to them? $10 says Elon directed Russia straight to a backdoor. He’s been itching to see Ukraine fail this whole time, I wouldn’t put it past him to directly interfere in such a way.

          IDK, maybe that whole thing where he likes to selectively turn off Starlink, or maybe that time he literally went to visit Putin and then spouted some Russian Blood and soil?

          He has refused to allow Ukrainian troops to use Starlink within Russian occupied regions to avoid “conflict escalation”.

              He also doesn’t let Ukraine use starlink in Russian-occupied regions of Ukraine, according to a quick google search.

              Why? Can starlink not track which ones they give to Ukraine and not let any others work in the area? Or would that require competence that Leon Skum and company doesn’t have?

                You’re asking the wrong person. I don’t work for U.S. goverment - I don’t know why the sanctions are what they are.
