    He didn’t send them all for free, they were also funded by the U.S. government. Sanctions say sales of such would be illegal in Russia. So yes, people in Ukraine can legally purchase and use Starlink and people in Russia legally should not be able too.

    So any of his terminals being used illegally are in fact his responsibility. They are using his companies satellites which are included in the sanctions… It doesn’t seem very confusing to me

    What part of that is confusing

      Do you know how many terminals SpaceX has already found out to used by Russians and have been disabled? Because I don’t but you seem to be implying that they’re not doing anything about it, so what are the numbers?

        So you claim they are doing something about it and demand someone else find you proof for your claims. Run around with your goal posts all you want.

          I’m not claiming anything. How could I know? I’m assuming they do, but to what extent is anyone’s guess. If someone has that strong opinion about it, I think it’s only logical to expect them to have a reason for it, such as evidence to the contrary.
