Yeah, the guy who spent countless millions of his own money to maintain internet for Ukrainian civilians and military is a bad faith actor... That makes total sense.

Or, since NATO is throwing billions of dollars at the Ukraine military, Musk wants them to bankroll Starlink for military purposes because as rich as he is, he doesn't have infinite capital.

I'm not sure if a civilian company has any way of protecting their assets, including orbital assets, other than essentially declaring neutrality in a conflict. And this isn't even neutrality - they're not offering the same service to Russia.
