Or: Musk personally rejected a request from Ukraine to enable Starlink in Crimea.

Ukraine doesn't currently control Crimea. So this is hardly meaningful.

Responses:

It would certainly be meaningful if their troops moved in and couldn't get internet. -- nm - Ender Oct 11, 20:41 4
- that is a ways off, I'm thinking they wanted to communicate with partisan groups in the Crimea -- nm - crash davis Oct 11, 20:44 3
  - It might be a violation of operating/funding agreements, at least until the map is redrawn. -- nm - Beryllium Oct 11, 20:46
  - I fail to see what would be wrong with that... -- nm - Ender Oct 11, 20:46 1
    - neither do I, but Ukrainian troops in the Crimea (barring massive Russian collapse) remains something quite a ways off right now -- nm - crash davis Oct 11, 20:54
