They why you act so suprised if it such any easy thing for the Russians todo. Why do you quickly point your finger at Elon musk?
Because of Elon's previous support for the Russians in the conflict when he shut down Starlink for use by Ukraine.
He never shut it down, he didnt turn it on. Russian Crimea does not have access to starlink. From your own link: “There was an emergency request from government authorities to activate Starlink all the way to Sevastopol,” Musk wrote on X, the platform previously known as Twitter.
Easy and obvious to find with a simple Google search. Have at it. For instance - https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-64579267 "She said the company had taken steps to "limit" the abilities of the Ukrainian armed forces to use Starlink in an offensive way - without giving further details. The executive said she could not answer a question on whether these efforts were the cause of outages to the Starlink service late last year." Musk also allows Russia to use Starlink service in Ukraine. Russia using thousands of SpaceX Starlink terminals in Ukraine, WSJ says https://www.reuters.com/world/europ...arlink-terminals-ukraine-wsj-says-2024-02-15/
That is not more proof that "Musk denying use of Starlink to Ukraine" You post some completely different topic instead, about Russians using black market obtained starlink terminals.
Even from the Starlink spokesperson says there were "outages". For instance - https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-64579267 "She said the company had taken steps to "limit" the abilities of the Ukrainian armed forces to use Starlink in an offensive way - without giving further details. The executive said she could not answer a question on whether these efforts were the cause of outages to the Starlink service late last year."
"without giving further details" -- ie. more Bullshit But what she is hiding is that Ukranian wanted Musk to turn Starlink on over Russia. And he rightly refused.
Additionally Musk shut off Starlink in Ukraine if the U.S. taxpayer did not pay the bills. However the money Musk was demanding was over 10X the cost charged for the service -- and 20X the cost charged for terminals to other customers.
