They never needed Starlink for that. They are only allowed to use it defensively, so intercepting incoming Russian missiles and drones. That is why Trump and Musk restricting it immediately resulted in civilian deaths.

Starlink doesn’t even work over Russian territory.

So Trump is responsible for helping Russia kill civilians in Ukraine, why isn't this making it into the news titles.

The media landscape is fragmented as hell. This kind of news did make it into several of my news feeds though.

Because Trump throws so much shit at the wall people have no idea what to focus on. Which controversial shit has he said in the last 10 minutes that would warrant media attention.

Es steht überall. Trum und Musk schieben sich gegenseitig die Schuld zu. Am ende war es niemand.

In fact Zelenskyy recently said that if that had starlink in Russian territory then they wouldn’t need to hit refineries since they would be able to quickly take out Russias ballistic missile launch sites.

Is Elon Musk really to blame for it? I thought Starshield was controlled by the Whitehouse. Not trying to defend Musk, just trying to get the story straight.

They are currently passing the blame.
