Allegations? You mean the fact he openly admitted it to his biographer?

Someone else posted this yesterday relating to these allegations:

It’s being pushed hard by someone, a few weeks ago there were vague “unnamed sources in the government” stories about them being “concerned” with how much power Elon has over Starlink, this morning Issiacson had to walk back his description of “drones washing up on shore” after it was clarified that there never was coverage in Crimea, Ukraine asked for it and Elon said “no, that’s a conflict area” which is consistent with where they have enabled Starlink up to that point.

@Thorny_Thicket @chaogomu

That quote is wrong though. There absolutely was coverage for Crimea at one point. Elon took it away when he decided Ukrainians should not be able to use Starlink too far in Russian occupied Ukraine.

That "conflict area" thing is a joke also. The front lines elsewhere in Ukraine are not a conflict area?
