Elon Musk Says Around 100 Starlinks Now Active in Iran

December 26th, 2022

Flashback: “We could bring secure, trusted data to every human being on planet Earth, underpinned by American values and the American Constitution.”

If it wasn’t clear after Ukraine, it should be now: Elon Musk is a CIA contractor, whether he knows it or not.

China will be the big one.

The thing about China is that they have anti-satellite weapons. Also, Musk would be risking substantial Tesla operations in China if he goes against that regime.

SpaceX Chief Executive Elon Musk said on Monday that the company is now close to having 100 active Starlinks, the firm’s satellite internet service, in Iran, three months after he tweeted he would activate the service there amid protests around the Islamic country.

Musk said, “approaching 100 starlinks active in Iran”, in a tweet on Monday.

The billionaire had said in September that he would activate Starlink in Iran as part of a U.S.-backed effort “to advance internet freedom and the free flow of information” to Iranians.

The satellite-based broadband service could help Iranians circumvent the government’s restrictions on accessing the internet and certain social media platforms amid protests around the country.
