Starlink is primarily a military technology that is used both on a battlefield and to coordinate USA-backed "protests". Why, for instance, it just become free in Venezuela? Every country needs to be able to to defend itself from Starlink.

Insane only for americans who refuse to accept the fact that their country, with some of their "allies", is the primary cause of wars and instability in today's world.
And who refuse to understand that providing means of communication to people of country X to organize military actions against the army and police of country X, is a military agression against country X.
