    From what I understand the Ukrainians never had control of the nukes, they didn’t actually have the launch codes to use them.

    Regardless, having global access to the internet is great. Ask the people living in remote areas of the Amazon, no chance for them to get fiber, or Africa, or remote islands, or ships/airplanes.

    If youre speaking of rural America not needing starlink because fiber is a thing, then you should broaden your horizons

      I love how you completely ignore how starlink is only viable for ukraine because the US military industrial complex.

      There was satellite internet before Starlink and Starlink should be banned for all the 5ghz interference it creates

        I’m ignoring that fact because its mostly irrelevant to this conversation. Would the Ukrainians prefer if it was controlled by a more reliable ally? Of course

        “Regular” satellite internet is nowhere near what starlink offers and it’s pretty telling you assume it is.

        An actual problem that you’ve not mentioned is the interference with ground based telescopes
