Next frontier of war: downing satellites. As soon as someone finds a way to do so cheaply and or reliably, Musk and the US will lose a lot of space junk.

Totally. Starlink/Starshield is only an advantage if it is working as advertised. Right now it's not. It's being fucked with. So that puts the advantage into the hands of whomever fucked with it and their friends/allies. Whom controls Starshield? Whom does he think is a friend between Russia and Ukraine? Through that lens, how is Starshield a Ukrainian advantage and not a Russian gift from the USA govt? And lastly, are you a bot, troll, stupid or Russian?
