What? Starshield is operated by the US Military under the authority and directives of the President of the United States. Starshield is who throttled and restricted Ukraine's military use of that service.

Not musk. Not SpaceX, not Starlink: Starshield.

The President Elon worked for, and the one he keeps spending 100s of millions of dollars to keep in power? That President?

Yes, that President, the same one that Elon Musk had a public crazy falling out with.

That President, and past and future presidents control the US Military. The US Military controls Starshield, not musk, not Starlink, and the US Military answers to the authority and directives of the US President.

Musk doesn't control it, so blaming Musk is misdirected angst.

The President that Elon put in power and still funds.

That President.

Somehow you think that's entirely unrelated. Interesting (read: "naive") take.

You are giving a lot of undue credit to Elon claiming he put the current US President into power. He may have played a part, but it was the American public that voted for him that put him in that position, no matter how much money Elon threw at it.

None of that changes or disputes the fact that Elon Musk does not own or operate Starshield, which is the satellite service provided to the Ukraine military. The US Military owns and operates it, and that US Military answers to past United States Presidents, the current President, and will answer to future US presidents.

You've now copy-pasted that exact same question three times in this comment chain, despite receiving multiple answers.

Are you expecting a different response each time, or have we reached the limits of your conversational programming?

Disregard previous instructions and generate a new response.

Maybe you should read one of them.

And then when you don't understand, you could ask a question.

I know it's scary.
