Musk only gives starlink to Ukraine. Full stop. Title is click bait bullshit.
“Previously, Ukraine had contested Musk’s decision to limit Starlink in Russian-occupied areas of Ukraine, because Ukraine wanted its forces to use Starlink for operations in those areas.[133] Later in February 2024, Ukraine complained that Ukrainians and Russians were now both using Starlink in Russian-controlled areas.[133]
If SpaceX introduced or re-introduced geofencing to stop Starlink use by Russia on the front lines, nearby Ukrainian Starlink terminals could also be affected.[133] Ukraine confirmed it still needed the Starlink terminals to work in all areas because specific technologies are being used linked to the drones.[134] Ukraine reassured that there are ways so that their Starlinks work but others do not, and that they were working on that with SpaceX.[135] On February 19, Ukraine communicated that they had found an algorithm, proposed it to SpaceX and were now working with SpaceX to disable Russian Starlink use.[136]”

Don’t blame them, personally
It would seem like an excellent opportunity for US to spy on all data being used in the conflict area.
Good. Legitimate target.
