Starlink is run by a company based in a country which has threatened to invade Greenland, with a CEO who is aligned with the leadership of that country.
- Sporktacular 1y agoThe sentiment is understandable. But jamming the satellite trunks to another country during an invasion would not be difficult for the US. It's not clear how choosing a French provider will prevent that.
- ta1243 1y agoThere's a lot of ground between Ally (which Greenland and the US were in 2024) and Active invasion Starlink removing service is nowhere near as extreme as America jamming starlink (which would be a breach of international treaties)
- mlrtime 1y agoDo you have credible evidence that the US is not an ally? I'm not talking about words said, hypotheticals etc. I mean actual laws passed?
- saubeidl 1y agoWords said is all that humans will ever have. Do not downplay them.
- mlrtime 1y agoNo, doing things is what we do. Words sometimes help with this, but the actions are what counts. Watch what people do, not what they say.
- riversflow 1y agoIn diplomacy words are actions.
- saubeidl 1y agoSaying words is doing things.
- sofixa 1y ago> CEO who is aligned with the leadership of that country Don't forget a guy who is so aligned with the leadership of that country that he paid to be a part of it, was kind of a government minister, and of course went on live national TV to perform a Nazi salute at an official event.
- mlrtime 1y agoYou guys love the drama don't you, didn't they break up recently?
- sofixa 1y agoEverything I've learned about these two men has been against my will. I've also learned that they broke up, one of them accused the other of being a pedophile (which, while he has a history of making up and getting sued for, checks out this time). But they seem to be on good terms now again?
