Everyone should take notes on this because your governments can do the same thing too.

Explain to us how iran can shut down a privately owned and privately operated satellite based internet, please I need to know, as does everyone else. I kinda want a starlink system.
If musk has agreed to shut down the system that is just one of many reasons to never do business with ANY musk owned business.

In this thread: people who didn’t read the article and think StarLink is voluntarily shutting off service (they are being jammed by the Iranian military).

This is deeply concerning. We will know absolutely nothing about what’s going on. Completely shut off from the world.

Starlink was able to counter jamming relatively well in Ukraine, so they might be able to here as well, if they wanted to.

Wasn’t starlink’s whole selling point was that it couldn’t be turned off or blocked?

This has to be an error, no? $37 million per day can’t possibly be an issue for the Iranian government?

You can’t block Starlink. You can locally saturate certain frequencies with junk signal, effectively making it impossible to use. But that would only work locally and require a lot of energy and transmitters.

The authoritarian countries helping Iran to do these are truly the cancers of humanity and the people.

Check the OPs profile he is a member for the Israeli Labor party. He very much has an agenda in his comments. His comments stated that the Palestinian genocide was the most covered “war” ever and that Palestinians had access to the internet during the genocide.

I’m surprised a lot of countries tolerate starlink to be honest

If the attack is from gps jamming, couldn’t the gps coordinates be static after initial installation?

So shortwave radios are still handy… noted.
