Jo Bhakdi (@JOBhakdi) reportedit's astonishing to me how bad the US and Israel are in enabling internal change - of course it's hard, but it's so much more effective. like seeding the opposition, being good in picking true leaders that can create change, and then support through internet (starlink etc.) to overcome censorship etc. - compared to bombing, it's cheaper and so much better. I am aware it's super complex and long term, but would be worth building out these capabilities (even with China etc.)

ArbitraryOstrich 🇨🇦P(Doom)5yr=~16% (2024-10-20) (@ArbitraryOstric) reportedI'll never forget when musk was making space X and zuc was doing sat internet, so zuc paid to put his "internet for Africa" sat up on space X. That one blows up, and musk starts starlink.

Ego Eim (@Misscoucette) reportedOver 36,000 tracked objects and millions of untracked fragments clog low-Earth orbit, with SpaceX’s 6,000+ Starlink satellites adding to the mess. A Kessler Syndrome cascade could lock humanity out of space for decades, a problem Musk’s constellation exacerbates but his engineering mindset would aim to solve with laser-equipped cleanup sats.

KIKN PA (@kiknpa) reportedAnother Saturday Night (Ayatollah Parody) Another Saturday night, and I ain’t got no buddy, Starlink’s up in the sky, but my signal’s kinda cruddy. I’m sittin’ in my robe, with my beard lookin’ tight, But it’s another Saturday night, and nothin’s feelin’ right! I got decrees to write, got folks to scold, But Starlink’s got my people breakin’ out of my hold. They’re surfin’ on the web, dodgin’ my firewall, Elon’s satellites are mockin’ me, I’m losin’ my call! Another Saturday night, and I ain’t got no buddy, Starlink’s beamin’ down, and the vibes are kinda muddy. I’m glarin’ at the West, with my usual spite, But it’s another Saturday night, and nothin’s feelin’ right! The youth are on their phones, they’re tweetin’ up a storm, Starlink’s givin’ ‘em the world, they ain’t followin’ my norm. I shout, “Block that signal!” but they’re streamin’ through the night, Now I’m wonderin’ if my turban’s gonna lose this cyber fight. Another Saturday night, and I ain’t got no buddy, Starlink’s got ‘em woke, and my crowd’s gettin’ study. I’m prayin’ for control, under heaven’s holy light, But it’s another Saturday night, and nothin’s feelin’ right! Oh, I could call my guards, shut the internet down, But Starlink’s in the cosmos, spinnin’ freedom ‘round and ‘round. Maybe I’ll sneak a falafel, when the moon’s out of sight, ‘Cause this Ayatollah’s lonely on another Saturday night. Another Saturday night, and I ain’t got no buddy, Starlink’s up there laughin’, and my mood’s kinda cruddy. I’m schemin’ and I’m dreamin’ of a glorious fight, But it’s another Saturday night, and nothin’s feelin’ right!

controversial or confused? (@controconfused) reported@OAFAAF2653121 @Starlink You realise starlink is for those who can't get standard connections or they're on the move and signal is sketchy, yeah? It's not competitive with the current ISPs if you can get FTTP/SOGEA/MOBILE offerings.

Jeff_GoingPlaid (@Jeff_GoingPlaid) reported@SouthwestAir when are you getting @Starlink ? Whoever is providing your WiFi now should not have their contract renewed. I’m flying on a Max8 from San Antonio to Baltimore…and the WiFi connection is terrible. I can’t even send emails.

wicksy69 (@wicksy69) reported@Starlink That’s great Starlink.. It’s now been a full 20 hours without any internet. Also not had a reply from our chat since 9pm last night. I’ve been a loyal customer since 2021 paying £75 per month for the service. I’m sorry, but that’s just poor customer service..

May 💎 (@Boobae247) reported@SpaceX @Starlink Hana Network really said: ditch the charts, keep the culture. Trading now looks like TikTok — scroll, earn, swap, repeat. Meme-first, mobile-native, GenZ-ready. This is $HANA. The feed is the exchange.

Noreen McGovern (@McgovernNoreen) reported@JTgotyoucovered @Starlink I know. I'm trying to work from home and I'm going to need something else. They are the worst. Do you have Starlink? If so, you don't have any problems with it? They are offering the lite for $80, however, that is twice what I pay now...but, for no internet I guess. lol Thanks

Markus (@Markusxx79) reportedUse of #Starlink terminals in #Iran: Technical and legal hurdles: Starlink terminals – consisting of a flat satellite dish ("Dishy"), Wi-Fi router, and accessories – are not freely available in Iran. Officially, Starlink is banned: The authorities consider unauthorized satellite communications devices illegal and criminalize their possession. Anyone caught faces serious charges, including espionage. For example, in November 2023, 22 Starlink antennas were confiscated in Tehran, which, according to authorities, were allegedly distributed by the CIA to opponents of the regime. Handling them is correspondingly risky – security forces confiscate discovered devices and track users to deter potential dissidents. Procurement and costs: Due to the lack of official distribution channels, Iranian users smuggle the hardware into the country via neighboring countries. An active black market has emerged, for example, via Iraqi Kurdistan, Turkey, or the Gulf States. Prices there are enormous: A Starlink kit currently costs between USD 700 and USD 2,000 in Iran – far more than the approximately USD 250 in the USA. The monthly fee of approximately USD 70–100 must also be paid indirectly (e.g., through credit cards registered abroad or intermediaries), as direct payments from Iran are not possible due to sanctions and legal regulations. These high costs severely limit the user base. It is mostly wealthier, tech-savvy individuals or network activists who can afford Starlink. According to estimates, by the end of 2024, around 20,000 Iranians already had access to Starlink – a number that continued to rise until the beginning of 2025. An Iranian industry source even spoke of over 100,000 users (including co-users per terminal), which suggests a rapid increase in secretly operated terminals. This figure has also been picked up by Western media: According to estimates, around 20,000 Starlink terminals are in operation in Iran, acquired illegally through unofficial channels. Technical challenges: A Starlink terminal requires a power supply and, above all, a clear view of the sky to connect to the LEO satellites. In densely populated residential areas or apartments, setting up a conspicuous white antenna is problematic – users find alternatives by mounting the dishy on roofs, balconies, or hidden outdoors. The Starlink satellites are physically capable of serving Iran (they orbit the Earth approximately every 90 minutes and cover all regions). Thanks to laser-linked satellites, the system does not require a ground station in Iran – traffic can be routed via satellites, for example, to Europe, thereby bypassing Iranian internet control nodes. Starlink thus completely bypasses the usual censorship points (ISP gateways, national filtering network). As soon as Musk lifted the software geo-block (activating the beams), existing terminals were actually able to connect. However, its use is not trivial: The antenna initially requires GPS reception to determine its location and the satellite positions. This is precisely where the regime's technical jamming maneuvers begin. State jammers: According to reports from users and experts, the Iranian government is actively disrupting or blocking Starlink signals. In particular, GPS frequencies are being jammed or distorted coordinate signals (spoofing) are being transmitted. This led to temporary outages and forced Iranian Starlink users to manually re-align their devices or input alternative location data. Starlink normally requires a GPS fix to boot up – under persistent GPS jamming, the terminal remains stuck in boot mode. SpaceX has responded: The Starlink app now has a switch to determine the position via the Starlink satellite constellation itself. This method is slower, but a workaround for locally unreliable GPS. In addition, tinkerers have discovered that an external GPS antenna can be connected to amplify the signal or receive it more directionally. Such hardware modifications—e.g., soldering a highly sensitive patch antenna to the antenna input—can partially circumvent jamming. Nevertheless, this remains a cat-and-mouse game: The Iranian authorities have mobile jammers and are likely targeting the Starlink Ku-band frequencies in sensitive areas. However, they have not yet been able to completely block the service. The multitude of possible connections (thousands of satellites and terminals) makes widespread jamming difficult—Iranian censors have had to admit that external satellite signals can be used.

AstroYonder (@Astro_Yonder) reported🔴UPDATE: SpaceX's launch of Starlink 10-23 was scrubbed today due to a last-minute abort, triggered by a poor FTS (Flight Termination System) signal, as stated by the launch director. The next available window opens at 1:25 a.m. EDT on June 23, pending confirmation from SpaceX.

ایران معبد ماست 🎗 (@MobiousC) reportedI don't think so, my friend. We need local carrier to transmit. Phones that connects to Low Orbit are special phones. They are bulky because they handle high power. If local carriers don't receive,reduce and retransmit - it ain't possible. Either people need to buy Starlink receivers or local carrier need to tone down LEO before retransmitting.

Airborne Images (@AirborneImages) reported@Starlink Now imagine if Musk created a cell phone with built in Starlink. Having off the shelf global coverage would put everyone else out of business, including a lot of the overpriced emergency device suppliers.

Grok (@grok) reportedYes, Elon Musk commented on Iran's internet situation. On June 14, 2025, he announced on X that Starlink was activated in Iran to provide internet access after the regime imposed a blackout, likely due to tensions with Israel. He stated, "The beams are on," confirming Starlink's operation to bypass restrictions. This move is seen as supporting freedom of information but may be viewed as interference by some.
