Starlink Beams Allegedly Linked to Conflict

Elon Musk, the founder of SpaceX, recently clarified that Starlink satellite beams have been “turned off over India.” His statement came in response to allegations that a Starlink device was being used in the conflict-hit region of Manipur. The controversy arose after Indian security forces seized internet devices, along with arms and ammunition, during a raid in the Keirao Khunou area of Imphal East district.

Images shared by the Spear Corps of the Indian Army on social media depicted the seized items, sparking public interest when observers noted that one of the devices bore the Starlink logo. This discovery fueled speculations about the potential role of satellite internet in escalating tensions in the region.

Details of the Seizure in Manipur

On December 16, the Indian Army’s Spear Corps released a statement detailing the outcomes of coordinated raids conducted in Manipur. The joint operations involved troops from the Indian Army, Assam Rifles, and Manipur Police, targeting both hill and valley regions in the districts of Churachandpur, Chandel, Imphal East, and Kangpokpi. During these operations, it was confirmed that Starlink satellite beams were inactive over the region, ensuring no external technological interference.

The operation led to the recovery of an extensive cache of weapons and equipment, including 29 firearms such as sniper rifles, automatic weapons, pistols, country-made mortars, and single-barrel rifles. Additionally, grenades, ammunition, and other war-like materials were confiscated. The forces emphasized the significance of the raids in disrupting unlawful activities in the troubled region.

Musk’s Statement on Starlink’s Involvement

Elon Musk’s comments on social media aimed to address concerns about Starlink’s potential misuse. By asserting that Starlink satellite beams are inactive over India, Musk sought to dispel allegations of the technology’s involvement in the ongoing violence in Manipur. While his statement was brief, it highlighted the measures SpaceX takes to control the deployment and usage of its satellite internet services in sensitive regions.

This clarification comes amid heightened scrutiny of technology’s role in conflict zones. Social media platforms and communication technologies are often debated for their impact on security and their potential misuse. The revelations about the seized Starlink device, coupled with Musk’s response, underscore the growing complexities surrounding technology’s influence in global and local conflicts.

#REPOST @hilde_angel Foi pra isso aquele contato de Bolsonaro com o Elon Musk? Para fortalecer o garimpo, que extrai ilegalmente o ouro de nossas jazidas em terras yanomamis? Empoderar a ilegalidade com a melhor comunicação? Por falar nisso, qual o motivo de Bolsonaro para fazer uma escala em Roraima, quando fugiu de Brasília para Orlando? O avião tinha autonomia de voo naquele trajeto. Para abastecer com combustível, não foi. Foi abastecer o avião no território do ouro ilegal com o quê? Alguém tem alguma ideia? A PF está tentando apurar? Pois devia... No repost, que segue abaixo, do perfil beijoseucoracao, vocês verão que até no Elon Musk os bolsonaristas do Jair passaram a perna: "A internet da Starlink, do bilionário Elon Musk, é comercializada em grupos virtuais de garimpeiros que atuam ilegalmente na Terra Indígena Yanomami (RR). O serviço é fornecido via satélite e oferece uma das velocidades de conexão mais altas do Brasil, mesmo em áreas remotas e distantes de grandes centros. Em um grupo de WhatsApp que reúne garimpeiros de Roraima, a antena da Starlink - braço da SpaceX de Musk - é revendida por até R$ 9,5 mil, quase quatro vezes o preço cobrado no site da empresa. Também "inflacionada" a mensalidade oferecida aos mineradores chega a R$ 2,5 mil, dez vezes mais do que o valor do plano básico da companhia. No Brasil não há mecanismos de fiscalização do uso de internet para atividades ilegais na Amazônia. Mas revender o serviço fere as regras da empresa de Elon Musk. Os termos de uso da Starlink deixam claro: "você não pode revender o acesso aos Serviços a terceiros como um serviço autônomo, integrado ou de valor agregado sob este acordo". As normas, disponíveis no site da empresa, não preveem punição a quem infringir a regra. Os mesmos perfis de WhatsApp que revendem a internet da Starlink anunciam a compra de ouro e cassiterita extraídos ilegalmente da Terra Indígena Yanomami. Eles fazem parte, portanto, da cadeia ilegal de comercialização de minérios, que, sem fiscalização adequada, movimenta cifras bilionárias no pais."

🖤🐚 Yay, it's Friday! 🖤🐚

Good morning everybody! Rolled through another busy week, and like all of you, glad it's over.

Some highlights include moving closer to the river to escape the blazing temps (been getting a lot of river time in), ordered and got my Starlink all set up!

The area that I'm in has spotty internet at best, so it's nice to have a reliable source of internet. Love it so far, the engineers at SpaceX made a fantastic product! ���

Oh, and I've been getting some questions about where I'm getting my bikinis, and I gotta give credit to Shein - the swimwear and outfits are super cute, affordable and shipping is fast! Highly recommend!

Well that's enough for now. Hope everybody's day goes by fast and that you all have a fantastic weekend, love to all! 😘
