I agree that people can be very irrational :) . But yet your leading phrase really deserves justification, smelling conspiracy theory from a mile.

to me it's clear, if a private business sells a technology service that is being used in a war, the adversary is going to see that action as hostile and use powers within their means to neutralize the threat. I'm not sure you're using the word "conspiracy theory" correctly.

But Ukraine is literally using services from a SAR satellite right now, which is run by a private business.

The conspiracy theory part is about this -

> if he didn't capitulate on Ukraine then Russia would knock his satellites out of orbit

Kinda hard to comment on flagged origin.

Do you see why it's a conspiracy theory?
