> if starlink wants to focus itself as the uncensorable internet in places like protests etc I’m not sure Musk would actually want that though, especially these days.
Why not?

Yes, ask their Mossad direct and local handlers (as per Mike Pompeo [1]) about how things are going, I’m sure that this being Mossad they have a ground-based way to get the information out. [1] https://xcancel.com/mikepompeo/status/2007180411638620659
Mike Pompeo is a private citizen; is there some reason to believe that he has direct knowledge of foreign involvement in these protests? It seems unlikely, and doubly so that he’d actually disclose it if he did.
Good for them, as they’re under external attack. For example a US ghoul like Mike Pompeo had this to say recently [1]: > Happy New Year to every Iranian in the streets. Also to every Mossad agent walking beside them so under those circumstances anything goes to defeat the likes of Mossad and associated foreign entities doing their thing on Iranian soil.

I think this is a major unforced error by the USG, of course we have seen plenty of those of late. There may be Israeli, American or other intelligence agencies present. But history has shown that spies can't just foment a revolution out of thin air. The Americans' first attempt at a coup in Chile, in 1970, failed. It was only after three years of US machinations and missteps by the Allende administration that Pinoch…

You and I are private citizens, he’s former US Secretary of State, let’s quit the charade.
I am wondering if Starlink users can't compensate for it themselves by transmitting a GPS signal using some SDR device locally, just putting in correct coordinates from Google Maps into it? GPS signals are at 1.5GHz which is easily accessible for cheap SDRs. But really, why doesn't Starlink device allow to simply enter coordinates manually? After all, if someone enters wrong coordinates (say to enable operation in a…
If it can serve a basic web page with a world map, it may be justifiable to include it for the price of the dish (yes will require some flash storage).
My thoughts to the Iranian people, may they get what they need and deserve at a cost that is not too high. As in all conflicts, there's always a "fog of blame" where there isn't absolute certainty about who is right and who is to blame. Though it's not that hard. Because their survival depends on it, dictators are very good at blaming others--anybody, really--for their own shortcomings, and they usually wield the kin…
