In Ukraine began to turn off Starlink satellite communications

Currently, many Starlink satellite communication terminals have stopped working in Ukraine. This is reported by the Ukrainian press, referring to the founder of the People's Starlink group Volodymyr Stepants.

According to Stepanets, now the terminal owners are trying to contact the technical support service of Elon Musk's Space X company for help. But when they try to contact the terminal owners, they receive answers about signs of fraudulent activity.



As reported in the profile community in the social network, Ukraine was at the center of a fraudulent scheme for using a satellite communications system. Fraudsters buy promotional equipment and resell it to Ukraine. The equipment is then discarded and the operator stops servicing the company's terminals. In addition, cases of sale of stolen satellite communication terminals in Ukraine are recorded.

Many Ukrainian entrepreneurs are trying to save up to 30% of the cost of terminals by purchasing equipment abroad - from intermediaries, and not from Space X.

Thus, the terminals can be stolen, or listed on the return list. Naturally, the company blocks accounts and communication stops working. We are talking about the threat of shutting down tens of thousands of Starlink terminals. Meanwhile, a lot depends on satellite communications, in particular, it is also used in the military sphere.

Earlier, Elon Musk threatened to turn off Starlink in Ukraine if the Ukrainian authorities did not pay for satellite communications services.

      Mykola, fuck the mini iPhone! Ugh! Get me an iPhone. Something similar happened in the USA during the best times of BLM. Then, on video cameras, thieves and thieves were calculated. The process is slow but progressively successful. So the freebie will come out sideways if you don’t take your legs out of the country in time.
      PS Two or three big articles on this topic were published by CNN where I read them.

        It would be fine if it were just a neighbor. Here is not a neighbor, here is "a philanthropist who gave shelter to the unfortunate refugees terrorized by Russia."

    Earlier, Elon Musk threatened to turn off Starlink in Ukraine if the Ukrainian authorities did not pay for satellite communications services.

    So there was a message that the Starlink terminal is turned off in Ukraine in general, as well as if it moves at a speed of more than 150 km / h and if it is positioned on the water surface. Again in Ukraine.

    Well, about the stolen, and even on such a scale - nonsense, I'm sure.
    The most likely scheme is gray channel purchases (hello, parallel imports!)
    Of course, the copyright holders do not like it.
    The question now is different - will there be someone who will pay for this, and thus compensate Elon Musk for financial losses, or will everyone all at once fall on Musk and push him through?
    Last time it was not possible to push through, the EU (I don’t remember exactly how), but compensated for the losses

    Rather, this is news about the private sector of the use of terminals. Where there is a military field of application and the military from NATO is present, there most likely the terminals are officially acquired, if only because military contractors also want to have their own margin.

    It's about the threat of shutdown tens of thousands of terminals Starlink company.

    recourse
    -SpaceX donated about 22 Starlink internet terminals to the country. The first terminals began to arrive in the country in early March, after the start of the NWO.
    -In August 2022, it was reported that Poland handed over to Ukraine 5 antenna terminals for Starlink satellite communications
    -Ukraine received (January) from Poland a batch of XNUMX Starlink satellite Internet terminals, which will be used to provide communications at the Points of Invincibility.
    -Germany will hand over 10 Starlink terminals to Ukraine next month. (already passed, those statement was in January)
    Well, a trifle anyway: Nokia provides Ukraine with 5 Wi-Fi routers and will cooperate with the Ministry of Digital Development

    Question to the author:
    If in Ukraine official> 30000-40000 (taking into account losses / depletion of the resource), then what are the "tens of thousands of stolen"?

    Maybe a link to the original source?
    No?

    Starlink now has victorious geofixation for blocking vikoristanny of its terminals - not only over the occupied Russian territory in the middle of Ukraine, but after the words of the dzherel in the Ukrainian Viysk rose, over the water

    Lina Kindratyuk (informant), probably also banned in Russia, but this is not certain.

    Well, why not dream up? Comrade Musk in a short time provided the Armed Forces of Ukraine with satellite terminals (planted, that is), and on their basis a command and control system was created. And now, the terminals are slowly being cut off, either for air drones, or for water drones, and now the turn has come to ground ones. And the APU has no alternative. Network-centric management - goodbye.

      are cut off only from those who appropriated them, and officially written off as losses

      a lot of terminals went to our trophies, so they are trying to chop them off



      And the APU has no alternative.

      3 or 4g + optics to the entrance or ADSL to the trench is the minimum. The maximum is an army digital radio communication of the NATO standard on HARRIS-s of the 3rd generation (up to 1 Mbit / s) with a hop frequency of 1000 hops per second.

      Even before Musk, they transferred all tactical communications to the digital DMR standard (Kenwood nextedge and Motorola DP-4800)

    A lot can change if he gets hooked, everything is very unpredictable.

      Judging by the reaction of the can, to the next shooting at the school, the reality is bad there. And its owners may not interfere.

    in general, the shutdown was not due to resale, but due to the fact that the Armed Forces of Ukraine used Starlink on drones and beat inside the territory of Russia, and Musk told them not to do this, but they don’t care, it would be better if they gave it back to Russia, it would be high

    "Elon Musk threatened" was such, but the State Department and the Pentagon, twisted his hands, no worse than Malyuta Skuratov.
    Musk was offended and took advantage of the pretext. And what about me: stolen equipment or bought from dubious sellers?
    Musk is not a child, he knew about it for a long time, but he closed his eyes, and how they began to "twist his arms", he "saw"
