It had little to do with the contract size. Starlink was being investigated to determine how the Russians were getting/using them.

This raises a potential conflict of interest, as Musk's company was under investigation by USAID shortly before he began calling for the shutdown. Starlink's activity in Eastern Europe has been criticized, with many Russian operatives claiming to have access to Starlink despite Musk's assurances that only Ukraine was using the service.

So well known by whom, and how? I never heard a peep about this until a few weeks ago, and all such claims seem to be coming from the same group of people with obvious ulterior motives.

Calling a guy a pedophile repeatedly because you made yourself look stupid getting excited about your cool submarine and how awesome everyone will think you are when you save some kids wasn't really worth much money either. I don't think Musk has the self-control to think like that, honestly.

It may not be the monetary amount but the message it sends.

Mess with me and Ill shut you down.

Musk is petty, though. Remember "pedo guy?"

Given that, your retort inadvertently supports the GP.
