On February 8, 2023 Gwynne Shotwell, President of Starlink, announced that the company had taken measures to prevent the use of Starlink service to control combat drones.[38] SpaceX restricted the licensing of Starlink communication technology to exclude direct military use of Starlink on weapon systems. The limitation restricted use by Ukraine of Starlink antennas on uncrewed surface vehicles deployed in the fall, potentially shifting the balance of power in the naval war in the Black Sea.[39] Shotwell stated that "Ukrainians have leveraged it in ways that were unintentional and not part of any agreement", as the contract was intended for humanitarian purposes such as "providing broadband internet to hospitals, banks and families affected by Russia's invasion".[38][40] She added "while we were pleased to provide connectivity", SpaceX did not intend Starlink to be "weaponized".[40] The company apparently knew the military is using them for communications, "and thats's okay."[40] "But our intent was never to have them use it for offensive purposes. Russia has tried to cut off and jam internet services in Ukraine, including attempts to block Starlink in the region.[5] On 15 October 2022, amidst Ukrainian counteroffensives in the Battle of Donbas, Russian forces reportedly disrupted a Ukrainian Starlink system in the Soledar-Bakhmut area after they destroyed a shortwave repeater But then one can claim to always be correct. When in Doubt, CNN, MSNBC, NYT will confirm it. -

Budanov also said Starlink coverage “did not work for some time” in Russian-occupied Crimea, without elaborating. “I can absolutely confirm that Starlink systems did not work for a certain period of time near Crimea. We immediately realized that there was simply no coverage there. That’s probably all I can tell you,” Budanov said. So it wasn't on for a while as musk stated? confirming musk? -
So, if someone is following you. instead of seeking safety, its golden to attack them?

Quoting someone that doesn't line up with your point is something CNN, just hoping people don't read past the headline. -

Public schools are failing kids, and the school administrators are more worried/concerned about DEI initiatives than actual education.

The war mongers are still trying to push the narrative Elon is some bad guy. Just ignoring the fact that would have been a huge escalation. Hill has journalistic integrity of buzzfeed BTW -

^^^^^^^^^^^^ is so daft. here is the text of the statement. - it's like they were referencing divisive rhetoric, lack of respect to any other views, (calling anyone with an opposing view, insults) and authoritarian narratives being pushed nonstop, but its way to broken to grasp it. The unalienable rights of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, as stated in the Declaration of Independence, are principles that bind us together as Americans. They have enabled the United States to strive toward a more perfect union, even when we have not always lived up to those ideals. As a diverse nation of people with different backgrounds and beliefs, democracy holds us together. We are a country rooted in the rule of law, where the protection of the rights of all people is paramount. At the same time, we live among our fellow citizens, underscoring the importance of compassion, tolerance, pluralism, and respect for others. We, the undersigned, represent a wide range of views across a breadth of issues. We recognize that these views can exist peaceably side by side when rooted in the principles of democracy. Debate and disagreement are central features in a healthy democracy. Civility and respect in political discourse, whether in an election year or otherwise, are essential. Americans have a strong interest in supporting democratic movements and respect for human rights around the world because free societies elsewhere contribute to our own security and prosperity here at home. But that interest is undermined when others see our own house in disarray. The world will not wait for us to address our problems, so we must both continue to strive toward a more perfect union and help those abroad looking for U.S. leadership. Each of us has a role to play and responsibilities to uphold. Our elected officials must lead by example and govern effectively in ways that deliver for the American people. This, in turn, will help to restore trust in public service. The rest of us must engage in civil dialogue; respect democratic institutions and rights; uphold safe, secure, and accessible elections; and contribute to local, state, or national improvement. By signing this statement, we reaffirm our commitment to the principles of democracy undergirding this great nation, protecting our freedom, and respecting our fellow citizens. When united by these convictions, America is stronger as a country and an inspiration for others. Obama Presidential Center George W.
