I love Starlink, and it is a great way for many people who live outside of where it is profitable to run broadband to have a high-speed Internet connection.

What is concerning is how much direct control Elon wields over the service. I wouldn't be surprised if he disabled access to BlueSky, or other forms of censorship.

If that sounds ridiculous to you, keep in mind this is the same man who disrupted a live Ukrainian op that made use of Starlink: https://www.nbcnews.com/news/world/musk-stopped-ukraine-atta...

It's a ridiculous, retracted claim that's very very suspicious. Especially given that the US didn't allow it's weapons to be used in the area. And there's many tools the government has to make companies comply. Starting with money, which they refused to pay.
