The House Select Committee on the Chinese Communist Party sent a letter on Saturday to SpaceX and Tesla CEO Elon Musk demanding that U.S. troops stationed in Taiwan get access to SpaceX’s Starshield, a satellite communication network designed specifically for the military.
The letter, obtained by CNBC and first reported by Forbes, claimed that by not making Starshield available to U.S. military forces in Taiwan, SpaceX could violate its Pentagon contract, which requires “global access” to Starshield technology.
Again, weird, since Ukraine knew exactly where Russia was and exactly where they were when Elon didn’t allow them to access Starlink.
So, again, sounds to me like you’re saying Russia has superior tech powers Ukraine does not.
I have no clue how you’re coming to that conclusion. Starlink blanket blocked access from Crimea. Regardless of whether that was right or wrong, this doesn’t prove that Starlink knows where Russian and Ukrainian troops, can track the battle line, and precisely turn off access based on that geographic area
Oh, so they can cut off areas Russia controls. Such as… oh… I don’t know… Crimea?
