You're viewing a single thread.
Am I understanding this correctly?
- The internet service provider being used by the Ukrainian military not only knew about specific battle plans but they relayed that information to their CEO? (No wait. The article claims that military officials actually called him up and gave him the details personally. This included schematics of the submarine drones which were "impressive." Good freaking lord.)
- The CEO then benevolently pulled the plug while having an emotional and heroic moment of introspection regarding the tools of war??
Both of those things sound very made up to me. The first sounds fabricated as a Macguffin to lead into #2. That's where where all the self-aggrandizing and emotional shit happens.
But if anyone thinks the first thing is plausible, I'd be interested in hearing more opinions.
I honestly don't care about the second item, but if the military is relaying plans to this known fuckwit, they probably got what they had coming.
Yeah, the idea that Musk had such in depth knowledge of the attack sounds like horseshit to me.
I also somewhat respect the idea of him not being happy his system is being used to directly control a weapon.
Would starlink exist without defense contracts?
