It is a technical limitation lmao. The internet is still down here. Starlink is a network managed by humans who live on planet earth. And the starlink constellation is constantly replacing satellites lost to attrition.
Lets say he flipped that switch, anywhere else but the US. They would:
Ban Starlink devices for the sake of it.
Block / Filter Starlink IP Addresses.
Shut down Starlink ground stations, and tear up telco licenses of anyone who does business with them.
Reallocate the frequencies Starlink pays to broadcast on, likely heavily deteriorating the service.
Arrest anyone affiliated with Starlink in country.
If they did it in seppoland they could go one better and just prevent new satellite launches.
Heck, he shut down starlink in Ukraine because he is on board with Putin.
You arent magically free of earthbound constraints, you just have a new one, Musk.
