I mean Ukraine took out most of Musk's daily users on his platform, makes sense he would blind them when his buddy asked him to.

    Elon Musk, Hegseth and Trump are traitors.

    That's why Europe should have decoupled from the usa decades ago

    Not to victim blame or anything, but why the fuck are they still using starlink? We already know musk supports Russia, they've done this exact thing before even.

    Because eutelesat does not have enough constellations so would be constrained in operation. Ukraine is kinda like in an abusive relationship with starlink and is forced to depend upon starlink even though its hurting them but they really cant do anything about it in the short term where it matters, this should be a reminder to everyone using starlink or any american service that they hold you by the balls and would use it as leverage. Europe should ramp up its homegrown alternatives and transition towards them as fast as possible.
