> SpaceX is actively meddling in foreign-state wars

Starlink is banned, by the US government, from operating in a military context, and cannot be used for military purposes. Do you have a reference/examples for them meddling/supporting wars, or a hint at what you're referring to for someone out of the loop? This is not allowed by very many laws and policies that have been in place since the company started operating.

I suspect you're making a logical leap that them stopping means they're now supporting some opposition?

"Motives" section being the important bits, for why it had to go to the government StarShield system.

Maybe this is the recent disruption referenced?

> On 14 October 2026, Musk said the Ukrainian military was using the US government owned and controlled Starshield system, not Starlink, and the recent change to restrict operational user terminals to those travelling at less than 100 mph (160 km/h) was a US government decision and not his decision.[87]
