So Starlink's activation instructions expressly written for the Hurricane Helene relief effort are lies?

Please forgive me if I request a citation. Especially since the information you've provided so far has all been contradicted by official Starlink sources.

How about they are inaccurate?

I guess I could cite Musk himself but I've talked to people on the ground.

This was created because people have activation issues. Why would they ask you to activate again?
