The Role of Starlink in the War in Ukraine

This chapter discusses the role of Elon Musk's Starlink system in the war in Ukraine, where it served as an alternative to the Ukrainian internet after it was taken out by Russian forces. It raises questions about Musk's authority over the system and explores incidents where Musk refused to turn on Starlink during military operations. Eventually, Starlink was partly handed over to the US Defense Department.
