SpaceX May Be Withholding Satellite Internet in Taiwan, Congressman Contends::undefined
Maybe having private citizens control important military architecture is a bad idea.
Most military equipment and technology is built by companies. There are contracts and laws that prevent those companies from abusing that power.
If starlink is critical US military infrastructure, then the US government needs to draft a contract with SpaceX to supply that infrastructure where it’s needed, and enforce it. If (when) Elon abuses that power, then he needs to be held accountable.
SpaceX has many contracts with the US government, and is prevented, by law, from doing certain kinds of business with foreign companies. There’s a limit to how far he can push things without jeopardizing that relationship.
Just nationalize it ✅
US military is definitely aware of this obvious problem and they’re probably in a planning stage of building out their own low earth orbit constellation of satellites that they fully control for military use. If I had to guess they’ll contract with Blue Origin to build out this architecture. Elon is shown to be a security liability at this point with alleged drug use and conflict of interest with countries deemed adversarial to US.
Those Uyghur slave workers in Elon’s Chinese Tesla factories don’t come for free it seems.

It is indeed FUcCY.
Believable.
What a weird article. There’s not a single mention on what this suspicion is even based on. It just says “may be withholding” and that’s that. The only other mention that’s even remotely related to the claim made in the title is that on Starlink’s website for Taiwan it says “coming soon”
Of fucking course he is. Can’t make China sad when there are cars that must be sold and money to be pocketed.
