Poland is paying for Star Link terminal connectivity in Ukraine on a commercial contract with the company. Star Link would need to cancel a commercial contract with Polish to do this. They have no particular reason and it would likely piss off shareholders since they’re turning down money for their service for a political reason.

Alternative are there, up to 100 Mbps is more than enough, even 10 Mbps would be probably enough too actually.

All of this in the open, with the world watching. Building camps at home and removing rights. Sinking further and further into shame, with all the talk of bravery and freedom in the national anthem and when the time comes there is only total and instant capitulation. The US will never regain its position in the world.

Nothing like helping demise a democratic country to appease a cocksucking Russia who now has total control over America. But yes, it’s the resources they want.

Either way, Ukraine looses when the 2 most fascist countries on the planet work together to destroy a country who didn’t start a war.

The America government should be slaughtered like pigs.

What a cunt thing to do. Trust fElon to be the one to do it.

If a private company can be used to threaten you, stop using their products and anything else they control and arrest the people who help them do this

This would be a major setback. And thus, describes the intent of the Trump administration - to extort a peace on their terms, as if they were the enemy - quite vividly.

For sea drones, there could be a work-around (some other satcom system) but for ordinary units on ground, a work around must be cheap - for them, engineers would be drilling posts into ground and running temporary fiber to temporary base stations like there’s no tomorrow. One hop of fiber can be quite long, 80 km is no problem with really cheap COTS hardware (professional hardware can probably talk over hundreds of kilometers). It’s making changes that is problematic.

Of course, units would also fall back to using civilian cell phone networks, some with directional antennas (e.g. you know that 10 km to your rear is an intact base station at (X,Y), you point a 20 decibel parabolic dish towards that direction and get online without the enemy having a good idea about your whereabouts. A big hassle, but not an insurmountable one.

Long range strike drones 99% likely aren’t using Starlink. They fly by inertial navigation and machine vision, and pick up clues from Russian mobile networks.
