Musk is an absolute sociopath, but there’s actually a logic to this.
Apparently the US has extremely tight export controls for telecomm tech used for war, and Starlink was concerned that by Ukraine using it in an offensive way it would result in the US or other countries classifying Starlink as military tech, thereby limiting where they can export it. That would be really bad for Starlink, of course, which is why they specified at the beginning that Ukraine should only use it for civilian goals (hospitals, schools, government, etc).
I assume the contract between Starlink and the Pentagon covers that, but I haven’t researched that far.
I was so surprised when I found the “discovery mode” in Origins. The team totally didn’t need to build that but it added a really cool educational aspect.
I wonder if any teachers actually used that mode in the classroom.
'"It is not humanitarian at all because it only serves one segment of the population there. The hostages there do not receive any humanitarian aid.”
They mean the civilians in Gaza held hostage by the Israeli military, right?
