Musk launches ad blitz pushing Starlink services, after X ban in Brazil

Elon Musk has launched an aggressive advertising campaign for his satellite internet service, Starlink, in Brazil, following a legal decision to block X, the social media platform formerly known as Twitter. The move came after Supreme Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes threatened to suspend X for non-compliance with court orders and for shutting down its legal representation in the country.

A detailed analysis by Lupa reveals that at least 41 Starlink ads, offering substantial discounts, flooded Brazilian digital spaces between August 28 and 31—marking a significant spike in the company’s marketing efforts. This surge is more than double the volume of ads typically seen in this market, indicating a calculated effort by Musk to bolster Starlink’s presence in Brazil during a turbulent period.

Data from Google and Meta’s ad libraries illustrate a clear correlation between Musk’s increased ad spend and the legal challenges facing X in Brazil. From January 1 to August 27, Starlink averaged one online ad every eight days. However, in the days following the August 28 suspension threat, the number of active ads skyrocketed, peaking at 37 on August 30. Many of these ads featured discounts of up to 58% for new customers in Brazil.

This advertising blitz is not a coincidence. Musk appears to be leveraging the controversy surrounding X to expand Starlink’s customer base in Brazil, ensuring continued revenue despite the challenges facing his social media platform.

Brazil’s top court has ordered that access to X be suspended in the country of more than 200 million people, as a prominent judge continued to lock horns with site owner Elon Musk.

Musk has been engaged in a months-long feud with Supreme Court Judge Alexandre de Moraes over X’s moderation policies. Earlier this year, Moraes opened an inquiry against X after Musk rebuffed a court order to block accounts supporting former right-wing president Jair Bolsonaro that allegedly spread fake news and hate speech. The news of X being blocked in Brazil was first reported by the Associated Press and others.

The AP further reported that internet service providers and app stores in Brazil have five days to comply with the ruling. “Given the number of internet providers in Brazil, it might take a while to get the filtering measure fully implemented, depending on how they go about it,” says Isik Mater, director of research at Netblocks, a civil society group that tracks internet censorship.

“Free speech is the bedrock of democracy," claimed Musk in a post on X after the announcement of the ban. He also alleged that Moraes was a "pseudo-judge" that was "destroying it for political purposes."

Internet firms must have a legal representative in Brazil who can act as a go-between for the government and the corporation. X currently doesn’t have one, because the site shut down its offices in Brazil earlier this year after it said Moraes threatened the legal representative with arrest as part of the inquiry. A Supreme Court-imposed deadline for X to install a new representative passed on Thursday night.

“Soon, we expect Judge Alexandre de Moraes will order X to be shut down in Brazil—simply because we would not comply with his illegal orders to censor his political opponents,” X’s global affairs account claimed in a post on Thursday night. “These enemies include a duly elected Senator and a 16-year-old girl, among others.”

Musk quoted that post and alleged that Moraes is “an evil dictator cosplaying as a judge.”

In its statement, X framed the court’s decisions as breaking Brazil’s own laws, alleging they are “illegal” and saying it would publish all related court documents.

Moraes’ office did not immediately return a request for comment.

On Friday morning, X appeared to still be available in Brazil, with users posting from São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro. But now, anyone caught using a VPN to access X will be subject to a fine of 50,000 reals, the equivalent of about $8,900, according to the AP.

Now, though, the suspension is imminent. Moraes already froze bank accounts belonging to Starlink, the satellite internet firm that Musk owns a portion of, this week. A statement from Starlink posted to X said that the company has a quarter-million customers in Brazil and that the action was an “unfounded” attempt to hold Starlink responsible for fines levied against X for failing to turn over documents. The company said it would seek a legal remedy.

A nation as large as Brazil blocking X would be a significant event regardless of the circumstances, but it’s worth noting that it comes amid a global push to reign in large platforms and their billionaire owners.

This week, billionaire Telegram CEO Pavel Durov was arrested in France and charged with “complicity” in a raft of serious crimes occurring on the app, which has gained a reputation for being lightly moderated over the years. The arrest sent shockwaves through the global tech industry, with Musk commenting, “dangerous times.”

Starlink, which provides space-based internet service to more than 2.6 million customers, often strips out the hefty cost of sending its satellites into space to make the non-public numbers look better to investors, these people said, asking not to be identified discussing private information. They describe the company’s accounting as “more of an art than a science” and say it’s not actually profitable based on an operational and ongoing basis.

Exploring the Cosmos with Starlink: A Revolutionary Satellite Internet S...

Starlink is a satellite internet constellation being constructed by SpaceX, the private spaceflight company founded by Elon Musk. This promising service aims to provide satellite internet connectivity to underserved areas of the planet, as well as provide competitively priced service to urban areas. The project plans to achieve this by launching a massive number of small satellites in low Earth orbit (LEO), working in combination with ground transceivers. SpaceX intends to provide satellite internet to practically all corners of the world by creating an interconnected network of satellites, that will form a wide-spread broadband internet system. The concept of Starlink is intrinsically linked to the idea of better global internet coverage, especially in regions where connectivity has traditionally been poor. The satellites will communicate with designated ground stations on Earth, which, in turn, will connect the internet services to users. Starlink's low orbit positioning makes it exceptional. Typically, satellites operate in geostationary orbits, approximately 36,000 kilometers from Earth. Starlink satellites operate much closer, in a range of 550-1,200 kilometers, enabling much lower latency and the capability to handle more data. Starlink has already started beta service in select areas in the United States, Canada, and the United Kingdom, with more than 10,000 customers already reported by SpaceX. The promise of a future with widespread internet access is a result of the remarkable use of the cosmos. Furthermore, Starlink will also fund Musk's vision of colonizing Mars as the revenue generated from this internet service will be used to fund SpaceX's interplanetary goals. This bold step by Starlink might act revolutionary in reshaping how internet services are delivered. It has the potential to bridge the digital divide where everyone could have access to the internet, irrespective of geographical distances. It also could change how we see the space business – not just as an exploratory field but as a commercial and global service provider. In conclusion, Starlink aims to play an essential role in the future of our increasingly digitized world. It offers the promise of smooth, uninterrupted internet connectivity that could change how we work, study, and connect with each other. In that sense, Starlink's journey is not just about exploring the cosmos but about enhancing the reach and quality of our communication on Earth.

Understanding Internet Service Providers (ISPs)

Internet services are limited to government offices and some university departments. This technology was developed to give the public access to the web in the late 1980s, and consumers could get limited access from a few ISP (America Online (AOL) being one of the most well-known names at the time ) which uses dial. - High speed connection via telephone line. The number of ISPs reached several thousand by the mid-1990s, and growth began. As connectivity options increased and dial-up connections gradually ceased to exist, the Internet economy was born. Providers have developed more advanced technology, allowing customers to access high-speed broadband technology through cable and Digital Subscriber Line (DSL) modems.

What are Tier 1 Internet Service Providers? Consumers and businesses are well aware that they need to be able to connect to the internet from anywhere, whether at home or at the local coffee shop. To provide high-speed connectivity, businesses must invest in expensive infrastructure, including fiber optic cables. Due to the large amount of investment, Tier 1 ISPs often emerge as regional giants in their respective regions. One company may appear to have total or complete control of the market in a given region. In the United States, business can be seen as operating in an oligopoly rather than a monopoly, where two or more businesses work together to achieve market returns.

This idea is reinforced by the fact that some of the major US ISPs became giants by using the resources they inherited from the original telephone company Ma Bell. Today's leading ISPs continue to invest in infrastructure and may be the only players in this market until new technologies independent of fiber optic cables appear. Consider Starlink, the SpaceX company founded by Elon Musk, which develops a high-speed Internet system that aims to meet the needs of consumers around the world, through a collection of low-cost satellites. The demand for faster speeds and a better internet experience means that many of the biggest ISPs are investing in 5G wireless technology.

A Falcon 9 stands ready for a Starlink mission at Cape Canaveral’s pad 40. File photo: Adam Bernstein/Spaceflight Now. Update Oct. 21, 4:20 p.m.: SpaceX is pushing back its planned launch to no earlier than Tuesday, Oct. 22. SpaceX is set to launch another batch of 23 Starlink satellites from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station to low Earth orbit on Tuesday. The Falcon 9 rocket launch comes on the heels of a week that saw the company launch a record six missions with four Falcon 9 rockets, one Falcon Heavy rocket and a Starship rocket, utilizing all four of its launch pads. Liftoff of the Starlink 6-61 mission from pad 40 at CCSFS is set for no earlier than 6:14 p.m. EDT (2214 UTC), pending weather. This will be SpaceX’s 68th dedicated Starlink launch of the year. Spaceflight Now will have live coverage beginning about an hour prior to liftoff. Coming into the Monday launch opportunity, the 45th Weather Squadron forecast 70 percent chance of favorable weather during that window. Meteorologists said they are tracking the impacts of Hurricane Oscar, which may also impact the booster recovery zone. “The breezy, onshore flow will continue into the upcoming week as the combination of a strong high centered to the north and Hurricane Oscar to the southeast enhance the pressure gradient over the Florida peninsula,” launch weather officers wrote. “These conditions will persist tomorrow as an area of higher low-level moisture moves in, enhancing Atlantic shower activity along the Space Coast.” A little more then eight minutes after liftoff, the first stage booster is set to touchdown on a SpaceX droneship, stationed in the Atlantic Ocean west of the Bahamas. If successful, this will be the 280th droneship landing and 357th overall booster landing. Expanding Starlink The mission is the first time that SpaceX has launched a batch of its Starlink satellites bound for the sixth shell of its constellation since May 31 with the Starlink 6-64 mission. Since then, it has been building out its eighth, ninth, tenth and 11th shells. The company has been working to get approval from the Federal Communications Commission to deploy and operate nearly 30,000 Gen2 Starlink satellites. Back in March, the FCC approved a request “to conduct communications in the 71.0-76.0 GHz (space-to-Earth) and 81.0-86.0 GHz (Earth-to-space) frequency bands (collectively, E-band), with the 7,500 Gen2 Starlink satellites that the Commission previously authorized in the first partial grant of this application.” That authorization caps the number Gen2 satellites at that number, for now. “Grant of this portion of SpaceX’s request will serve the public interest by allowing SpaceX to utilize the full capacity of its more advanced Gen2 Starlink satellites, which will improve the broadband service that SpaceX is bringing to U.S. customers, including those in unserved and underserved areas of the country,” the FCC wrote on March 8. “We continue to defer consideration of the remainder of SpaceX’s request, including SpaceX’s ongoing use of emergency beacons, which is the subject of a second amendment to SpaceX’s application, as well as the remaining 22,488 satellites SpaceX proposed in its application, as amended.” On Aug. 16, the FCC’s Satellite Programs and Policy Division approved a license modification request from SpaceX regarding its Gen1 satellites, of which there are 4,408, according to the FCC. “Specifically, SpaceX is authorised to modify its operations due to planned changes in satellite hardware, including modification of beam-forming and digital processing equipment to enable narrower beam capabilities,” the FCC wrote. “This modification also reflects updates to SpaceX’s orbital debris mitigation plan due to planned deployment of larger satellites.” Essentially, this approval allows SpaceX to launch Gen2 Starlinks as replacements for the Gen1 versions under the Gen1 authorization. According to astronomer and expert orbital tracker, Jonathan McDowell, as of Oct. 20, 2024, there are 6,473 Starlink satellites in low Earth orbit. Among those, 4,150 are Gen1 and 2,323 are the Gen2 Mini variety. The next generation Starlink satellites, which are so big that only Starship can launch them, will allow for a 10X increase in bandwidth and, with the reduced altitude, faster latency https://t.co/HLYdjjia3o — Elon Musk (@elonmusk) October 14, 2024 The full-size Gen2 Starlink satellites will be launched using SpaceX’s Starship rocket, which just completed its fifth test flight on Oct. 13. The company was able to catch the first stage booster, called Super Heavy, using its launch tower for the first time. SpaceX points to this capability as key to being able to enable rapid reusability of the rocket in the future. In addition to expanding the number of Starlink satellites that it is allowed to launch and operate, SpaceX also wanted to modify the nominal orbits of some of its shells, as first reported by Ars Technica. In a filing to the FCC dated Oct. 11, 2024, Jameson Dempsey, SpaceX Director of Satellite Policy, wrote that SpaceX wants “to lower the nominal altitudes of its shells at 525 km, 530 km, and 535 km to 480 km, 485 km, and 475 km altitude, respectively.” “For the lower-altitude shell at 475 km, SpaceX requests authority to reduce the nominal inclination from 33 degrees to 32 degrees,” Dempsey wrote. “With the exception of its shell at 475 km altitude, SpaceX requests to modify its authorization to more flexibly distribute satellites in up to 56 planes per shell and up to 120 satellites per plane. “While this reconfiguration will result in a higher potential maximum number of orbital planes and satellites per plane for all but one shell at 475 km, the total number of satellites in the Gen2 system will not exceed 29,988 satellites, and the first tranche of satellites in the Gen2 system will remain 7,500 satellites until such time that the Commission permits deployments beyond that first tranche.” Dempsey argues that the requested modifications will allow the Starlink Internet constellation to “deliver gigabit-speed, truly low-latency broadband and ubiquitous mobile connectivity to all Americans and the billions of people globally who still lack access to adequate broadband.” The FCC has yet to respond to this latest request. Special coverage concluding While there aren’t any Starlink satellites that feature the Direct to Cell capabilities on the Starlink 6-61 mission, SpaceX is about to wrap up a unique learning opportunity with the technology. On Oct. 7, the FCC’s Satellite Licensing Division granted SpaceX “special temporary authority” to operate its second-generation Starlink satellites that have the DTC capacity for 15 days “with supplemental coverage from space-capable Earth stations in the areas of Florida affected by Hurricane Milton.” It was also granted the same authority on Oct. 4 for the territories impacted by Hurricane Helene. In the United States, SpaceX is partnering with telecommunications company, T-Mobile, to provide the service, though it has expressed an interest in working with other providers in the future. SpaceX also began testing the functionality down in New Zealand with telecommunications company, One New Zealand. “When we announced our collaboration with SpaceX, we were dealing with the aftermath of Cyclone Gabrielle, a stark reminder of the necessity of a resilient back up to our mobile network, which can be disrupted by climate-related, fibre and power outages,” said One New Zealand CEO Jason Paris in a statement. “We’re unfortunately seeing this play out with Hurricane Milton in Florida right now, where Starlink satellites with direct-to-cell capability are playing a vital role keeping people connected as the extreme weather has disrupted their ground based mobile networks. That’s why starting testing here is a giant step forward on our mission to bring coverage like never before to New Zealand.” Starlink d2c now beginning testing in New Zealand with @onenzofficial! https://t.co/c810mpihRz — Michael Nicolls (@michaelnicollsx) October 21, 2024

SSST's network was previously known as G60 Starlink, referencing a major cross-country highway in China and the project's intent to imitate SpaceX's broadband service. Thousand Sails may eventually consist of more than 14,000 satellites, but like other Internet megaconstellations, the size of the fleet will likely grow at a rate commensurate with demand. It will take many years for SSST to deploy a 14,000-satellite constellation, if it ever does. SpaceX has rolled out several generations of Starlink satellites to offer new services and more capacity to meet customer uptake. Chinese officials have released few details about the Qianfan satellites. But the project's backers have said the spacecraft has a "standardized and modular" flat-panel design. "It meets the needs of stacking multiple satellites with one rocket," said Shanghai Gesi Aerospace Technology, a joint venture set up by SSST and the Chinese Academy of Sciences to oversee manufacturing of Qianfan satellites. This sounds a lot like the design of SpaceX's Starlink satellites, which are flat-packed for launch on Falcon 9 rockets. SpaceX pioneered this way of launching and deploying large numbers of satellites. The approach used for Starlink, and apparently for Qianfan, streamlines the integration of multiple satellites with their launcher on the ground. It also simplifies their separation from the rocket once in orbit. The new Qianfan satellite factory in Shanghai can produce up to 300 spacecraft per year, project officials said in December. Officials previously said the first 108 satellites for the Thousand Sails constellation would launch this year. SSST announced in February it had raised more than $900 million from Chinese state-backed investment funds, Shanghai's municipal government, and sources of venture capital. SSST's origin is linked to a Chinese joint venture with a Germany-based company called KLEO Connect, which intended to develop a smaller constellation of low-Earth orbit satellites for data relay services. China launched four technology demonstration satellites, purportedly related to the KLEO Connect venture, to test telecom hardware and electric propulsion systems in orbit. The joint venture fell apart with a flurry of lawsuits, and the German government last year blocked a complete takeover of KLEO Connect by its Chinese investors. Now, SSST is going it alone with the Thousand Sails network. It has rapidly scaled up satellite manufacturing capacity in Shanghai. But outside of Starlink, companies with ideas for megaconstellations have run into serious headwinds.

We are saying, if you live within a rural region, it’s nonetheless really worth obtaining—especially if it’s your only option.

Internet day by day. By comparing these quantities, effectively as our own Starlink examination results, we might get a very good concept of how these distinctive competing services will do for just about any US-centered consumers looking at the company.

It is possible to probable obtain faster connection speeds with satellite internet in specific situation, like if only dial up is available or the ISP in your town only delivers specified speeds.

Below CFATS, a chemical facility is any establishment or specific that possesses or plans to have any of your greater than 300 chemical substances of fascination (COI) in Appendix A at or earlier mentioned the listed screening threshold quantity (STQ) and concentration.

Even though MEO satellites supply numerous Added benefits, The very fact that they are ‘relocating’ provides in novel aspects with regard to architecture, network administration, and floor segment.

Like HughesNet, Viasat relies on HEO geosynchronous satellites to offer customers with internet. It is really offered Nearly any place, nevertheless it does involve Specialist installation.

Like all metrics, CSAT is just one bit of the puzzle In terms of measuring business results. Right here’s what you have to know about its capabilities.

HughesNet may be used to stream video at resolutions around 4K, but will default to stream at "DVD high quality" (480p) Except you specially change off the throttling from the HughesNet app.

To determine the best internet providers ranking, the Forbes Dwelling editorial staff analyzed 21 key internet providers, with Each and every provider’s star rating based on assessing a number of metrics together with:

Featuring enhanced satellite efficiency: LEO satellites are certainly not normally ready to monetize their sign due to the fact they shell out many time about oceans together with other unpopulated areas;

Electric power on: Activate the user terminal and anticipate the method to initialize. Notice the lights around the terminal to be familiar with its status.

GCCSAT’s new era of services brings jointly each one of these features necessary to play an important role in common coverage within the significant-speed accessibility sector.

As a result of this, he has formulated a wealth of knowledge in many different matters ranging from solar and home security to shifting and home warranties.

Our intention is to determine ourselves given that the Leading company within the area for satellite connectivity services, IP technology integration, and thorough guidance services. With our expertise and experience, we make certain seamless communication solutions tailor-made to the particular necessities of each and every shopper, whether it is VSAT solutions in Singapore, VSAT equipment in Dominical, or satellite connectivity in Africa.

A Falcon 9 stands ready for a Starlink mission at Cape Canaveral’s pad 40. File photo: Adam Bernstein/Spaceflight Now. SpaceX will continue the expansion of its Starlink internet satellite mega-constellation with two planned Falcon 9 launches from Florida this week as the company boasts hitting more than three million users. First up to bat is the Starlink 6-62 launch from pad 40 at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station at 10:35 p.m. EDT (0235 UTC). It will add 23 additional satellites to the thousands currently in low Earth orbit. Spaceflight Now will have live coverage beginning about an hour prior to liftoff. The Wednesday night launch comes later in the day after the company successfully launched a classified number of satellites supporting the National Reconnaissance Office’s so-called “proliferated architecture” constellation.  It was the first of what the NRO described as approximately half a dozen such launches anticipated in 2024. “Over the next decade, we will continue to increase the number of satellites operating across multiple orbits — complementing the NRO’s cutting-edge, highly-capable satellites that are the traditional hallmark of the NRO — by adding responsive, proliferated systems,” said Dr. Troy Meink, principal deputy director of the NRO, in a statement. “Our proliferated systems will increase timeliness of access, diversify communications pathways, and enhance our resilience.” The Falcon 9 first stage booster, tail number B1080 in the SpaceX fleet, will launch Wednesday’s Starlink 6-62 mission. It previously supported the launch of three Dragon missions to the International Space Station along with the European Space Agency’s Euclid observatory. About eight minutes after liftoff, B1080 is set to touch down on the droneship, ‘A Shortfall of Gravitas.’ This will mark the 91st booster landing for ASOG and the 311th booster landing for SpaceX to date. In addition to announcing that it reached three million Starlink customers, earlier this week SpaceX also noted that the service is now available across the islands that make up the Republic of Fiji. SpaceX stated that it marked “the 99th country, territory or market around the world where Starlink’s high-speed internet service is available.” In a separate post, SpaceX shared a video on X (formerly Twitter) demonstrating what it described as the “first video call on X completed through Starlink Direct to Cell satellites from unmodified mobile phones!” It added that the service will begin to be rolled out to T-Mobile customers “later this year.” First video call on @X completed through @Starlink Direct to Cell satellites from unmodified mobile phones!

Politicians are often takers.

They take our money (and freedom) in the name of achieving goals they rarely achieve.

Elon Musk and Sen. Elizabeth Warren may be the best examples of maker and taker. They're the stars of my video this week.

Warren shouts, "Tax the rich!"

She especially wants to tax Musk, the richest man in the world.

In her eagerness to grab his money, she spun a scandal in the media, claiming Musk paid no taxes. She went on TV again and again to tell people that in 2018, "He paid zero!"

It was true. In 2018, Musk paid no federal income tax. But that was only because his pay was entirely in the form of "stock options," and that year, they gave him no income.

But at the very moment Warren launched her "zero-tax" screed, Musk was paying the U.S. government $12 billion -- more tax than anyone has ever paid in history.

Warren didn't mention that.

I wish Musk paid much less tax. It would be better for the world if he spent the $12 billion himself -- rather than giving it to Warren and her cronies.

I say that because Musk, a maker, does so many useful things. That includes things that the government is unable to do.

NASA has given up building spaceships. Even NASA bureaucrats now understand that they don't do things very well.

In 2008, NASA administrator Mike Griffin said, "We can't keep doing the same old things as before" and invited private companies to join the space race.

That got results.

By 2020, Musk had sent astronauts into orbit, something NASA hadn't been able to do for nine years.

Musk lowered the cost of nearly every component of space flight. NASA spent $1,500 on door latches. Musk's team built the part for $30 by modifying a latch from bathroom stalls.

Musk developed reusable rockets, which drastically cut costs.

"Reuse the rocket, say, 1,000 times," said Musk. "That would make the capital costs of the rocket per launch only about $50,000."

Why didn't NASA do that? Because in government, people do what they've always done. Lowering costs isn't important. They're spending other people's money.

Musk also created Starlink. Starlink satellites now provide low-cost internet service to people all over the world. He's so successful launching satellites that most satellites now orbiting earth are Musk's. He's given more poor people access to the internet than any government ever has.

Musk develops the world's most popular electric car, gives poor people internet access, reinvigorates space exploration and creates 110,000 jobs.

So, Warren wants to punish him?

She sent a letter to the Securities and Exchange Commission, demanding the government investigate Tesla for "not properly representing shareholders."

Seems like a bizarre accusation, given that Tesla's stock has increased in value by $790 billion.

Warren didn't like that Musk became CEO of Twitter. She demanded that "conflict of interest" be investigated.

But it's great that Musk bought Twitter. He told Joe Rogan that he's lost money on the company, but that taking over Twitter was still worth "everything," because he's protecting open debate.

I agree. Twitter's previous owners censored political views that didn't conform to left-wing bias.

They even reduced the number of my Twitter followers. Only when Musk took over did the total climb back above a million again.

Now Musk's company, Neuralink, is trying to help paralyzed people access the internet and operate artificial limbs -- just by using their thoughts.

Neuralink, Tesla, SpaceX, Starlink. Musk is a maker and a hero!

Warren, the taker, attacks people who create wealth.

She pushes a skewed narrative about "greedy" corporations.

Of course, corporations are greedy! Greed works. It motivates people to try harder.

But (outside of government) greedy people can only satisfy their greed by pleasing customers. Unlike politicians, they can't force anyone to pay.

Our world needs fewer Elizabeth Warrens and more Elon Musks.
