Elmo disabled Starlink services to deny communications near Russian-occupied Crimea last year to frustrate an attack on Russian warships thus allowing the Russian fleet to attack Ukrainian cities.
Is he his own sovereign state?

I've read a couple of Walter Isaacson's books - "Benjamin Franklin" and "Einstein". There's no way I'm wasting my time and money on his latest book. Musk represents everything that's wrong with corporate America and Silicon Valley.
When I read a biography, I'm trying to understand the life and times of that person. I know more than I need to know about Musk. None of it is good.
The latest Starlink information, apparently from Isaacson's book, is further proof that there is nothing good about Musk.

US Secretary of State #Blinken responded to the #Starlink outage incident in #Crimea
Recall that Elon #Musk secretly refused to give Kyiv access to his Starlink communications network over Crimea to prevent #Ukrainian drones from attacking Russian warships.
Antony Blinken expressed hope that this technology will remain fully accessible to Ukrainians. However, he could not say whether Elon Musk should be held accountable for his actions.

‘I reported six months ago… that #Starlink was not only geofenced but also programmed to stop working at the… speeds drones work at. Ie it was active blocking’ https://x.com/olliecarroll/status/1700748836992389628?s=12
‘ I reached out to a source close to the Ukrainian drone programme… They confirmed Starlink had been previously enabled in the area… - which is why #Ukraine had used USVs that relied on #Starlink… - and that Musk had "turned it off" https://x.com/jimmysecuk/status/1700845764644098197?s=46

#Musk would have had a completely different narrative if DoD would have acquired the #Starlink for #Ukraine as he originally hoped. The involvement in a major war would have been no problem. https://www.nytimes.com/2023/09/08/world/europe/elon-musk-ukraine-starlink-drones.html #SpaceX

Excellent little summary of the #Musk #Starlink issue here. #neoliberalism #PrivatisationOfPublicInfrastructure „My point is to illustrate the fact that it’s not just that Elon Musk sucks, which he does. The whole situation sucks. You simply can’t have critical national security infrastructure in the hands of a Twitter troll who’s a soft touch for whichever foreign autocrat blows some smoke up his behind. But that’s what we have here.“ #RussiasWarOfAggression #Ukraine

Jeet Heer: Elon Musk is a state within a state. He's wealthy enough to have his own foreign policy. That's a problem.

Brian Klaas: We might want to reconsider having a system in which a single conspiracist billionaire who gets his information from Catturd2 and Ian Miles Cheong can sway wars in favor of murderous despots that invade sovereign countries. Just a thought. #Musk #Starlink #Ukraine #Catturd #Putin

🔴 News of the #Starlink Affair came out ~6 weeks ago to a quiet public reception
So who's driving this news story now, and why?
I have a suspicion it's indirectly #Reichsführer #Putin - it's exactly his style to drive a wedge between neighbours and friends

Musk stops Ukraine from using Starlink which allows Russia launch missiles that kill Ukrainians. because he doesn’t want to be involved in the war?
By not allowing Ukrainian drones to destroy part of the Russian military (!) fleet via #Starlink interference, @elonmusk allowed this fleet to fire Kalibr missiles at Ukrainian cities,” he added. “#UkraineWar #UkraineRussiaWar https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/europe/elon-musk-ukraine-starlink-twitter-b2408081.html

No one person should have this much power over nations. Petty #dictators and #industrialists are cut from the same autocratic cloth.
