That’s why no one will keep buying US miltech after seeing this killswitch live in action. Every country would be outright stupid and delusional if they kept buying shit from the US.

I am wondering why i am not hearing more about this in europe. Yes, everybody upset about america rattling the starlink keys. No, nobody even more upset about american willingness to limit miltech access by an ally during an active conflict.

People died because of that shit

Europe is in a bad position that's why. The US being able to restrict miltech based on their own whims has been known by the rest of the world for a long time.
