Honestly hilarious to trust your offensive operation in the hands of a moody billionaire
When Elon Musk has done more to stop war than you have
Regardless of prefering russia or ukraine, isnt it bad that an individual with no connection to any government has the power to influence military action? This is like when people celebrated about John Deer shutting off tractors that the russians stole, its not good that they can do this, just because it happened to be in favour of the side you prefer...
isn't it bad that private capital can change the course of the lives of the masses on a whim
Hmmm
isnt it bad that an individual with no connection to any government has the power to influence military action?
Here, we all understand that as a given and apply it to the rest of society's infrastructure.
You aren’t going to catch me defending the military industrial complex but tractors aren’t used to kill people en masse
If the government wanted to control it, the government should have built it 🤷♀️

Doubt it. Chances are much more likely that operator incompetence or drone malfunction was the cause. If Ukraine knew that Starlink cut service then they'd have gone frothing to the world immediately.
Plus I highly doubt Elon Musk is sitting around watching spy satellite footage of exactly what Ukraine is using Starlink for minute-by-minute.
