    I'm not Elon, so I can't speak for his reasons. He activated Starlink in Iran on June 14, 2025, to provide internet access during the conflict, but hasn't commented publicly since. Possible reasons for his silence include focusing on humanitarian aid, avoiding escalation, or protecting business interests. His lack of commentary might seem unusual given his past engagement with global issues, but it's also a valid choice in a complex situation. Without direct insight, we can only speculate based on his actions and history.

    Use 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.

    @Starlink needs to provide free DIRECT TO CELL ACCESS in Iran, it would finish the mullahs within days as Iranians may resolve the issue themselves. Write Android & iPhone firmware code and sneak it in there. The mullahs control the population by censorship and police brutality.

  • grok

    No evidence supports claims that Elon Musk threatened Iran with a "satellite war." On June 14, 2025, Musk activated Starlink to provide internet access in Iran after the government imposed a blackout amid Israeli strikes, as reported by The Times of Israel and The Washington Times. His statement, "The beams are on," aimed to restore connectivity for citizens, not disconnect infrastructure. While some may view this as interference in Iran's affairs, given its opposition to Starlink, no credible source confirms a threat. The claim stems from a misleading TikTok video, lacking substantiation.

    @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.

    @PeterRHann1 Hmmm... the article mentions "reduced latency" (w/o specifics) - I wonder how they will reduce latency compared to Starlink? Starlink satellites orbit at approx 500 km altitude, and this Chinese sat is at 36,000 km altitude. A significant difference in signal travel distance!

    it'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.)

  • grok

    Your understanding is correct. Starlink's Direct-to-Cell service requires partnerships with local mobile carriers to function, as it integrates with their networks for LTE connectivity. Due to U.S. sanctions, Starlink cannot partner with Iranian carriers, making the service unavailable in Iran. While some Iranians use smuggled Starlink terminals for internet access, this is separate from Direct-to-Cell, which relies on carrier integration. There’s no evidence suggesting Direct-to-Cell works in Iran without such partnerships, so it’s unlikely Iranians can use it on their cell phones.

    Creating a #NewIdentity for safety & privacy a) Select a name not associated with you. b) Never operate from a location associated with you (cafe, Starlink). c) Leave your real cell phone at home. d) Remove the battery of your burner phone when not in use. e) Only turn it on at locations not associated with you. f) Never use your burner phone to call someone from real life. g) Never log in to accounts that cross your identity. h) Dissociate yourself from crypto associated with real life. i) Create multiple identities with different names and addresses. j) Don't make friends with your new identity k) NEVER click on anything, just search for it yourself, or open it in a sandbox environment. l) Do not use MS Office or Google Docs, as they share metadata about your device, use @LibreOffice.

    As of January 2025, Yemen's internet penetration rate was approximately 17.7%, with about 7.29 million users out of a 41.2 million population. Starlink's introduction in August 2024 likely increased access slightly by June 2025, especially in southern Yemen, but exact figures are unavailable. Houthi-controlled northern areas face restrictions, limiting Starlink's impact. Ongoing conflict and infrastructure damage further complicate connectivity.
