“Won’t Do Unless at Gunpoint”: Musk’s Starlink Rejects Governments Requests to Ban Russian News
Moscow-backed news outlets across the European Union were banned this past week. Across the pond, RT America pulled the cord, ceased all operations, and laid off most of its staff due to “unforeseen business interruption events.” The Orwellian measures that governments impose to silence opposition and control narratives is the same playbook used during the virus pandemic.
In the ‘fog of war,’ it’s important to hear both sides so one can make an informed decision — even though the other side might be wrong (or lying) — the ability to objectively hear both sides leaves room for debate.
What about all the MSM outlets who shared lies about the ghost of Kiev, or Snake Island? https://t.co/5orvIEeQF2

No other than the world’s richest man, Elon Musk, tweeted early Saturday morning that “some governments (not Ukraine)” have told Starlink “to block Russian news sources.” He said, “We will not do so unless at gunpoint.” . . .
Starlink has been told by some governments (not Ukraine) to block Russian news sources. We will not do so unless at gunpoint.
Sorry to be a free speech absolutist.

That said, Musk also warned that “Starlink is the only non-Russian communications system still working in some parts of Ukraine, so the probability of being targeted is high.” (Read more from ““Won’t Do Unless at Gunpoint”: Musk’s Starlink Rejects Governments Requests to Ban Russian News” HERE)
