I know Star Link is useful, but boy, Ukraine should really be careful using it now. Devil knows what Musk is cooking up next to undermine Ukraine. As much as it's needed, Ukraine can not depend too much on it.

Are they even able to use it? My understanding was that it was never turned on because Comrade Musk didn't want to piss off his Russian financiers by letting them use the service he made the USGov pay for.

If you are interested in a rather detailed analysis of Starlink in Ukraine, I highly recommend listening to episode 53 of the 'Geopolitics Decanted' podcast.
