Report says Musk ordered Starlink slowdown in Ukraine

Original: Musk ordered Starlink slowdown in Ukraine: WSJ

The Wall Street Journal reports that Elon Musk ordered a slowdown of Starlink services in Ukraine, citing the move as affecting connectivity relied upon by Ukrainian forces during the war with Russia. The claim has drawn fresh scrutiny of Musk's influence over a critical battlefield technology and of the US government's reliance on SpaceX for wartime communications.

Why now: The Wall Street Journal's report raises new questions about Musk's unilateral control of communications infrastructure during an active war.
