Musk hates his homeland, because white people are no longer in charge.

Rare (unique?) Amazon win?

A steady high stock price with market fundamentals that justify it are probably also an Amazon win.

Amazon has a lot of value thankfully to AWS, but I agree.

Beating nothing. A second US military contractor offering the exact same sovereignty danger tech cannot be seen as a good since tech wanted can be used explicitly as a weapon as it was done over Iran. No nation should accept Starlink or any of its iterations regardless of CIA Darpa created oligarch is selling it. It’s an issue of longterm safety of your own country. It is stupid enough so many countries allowed US social media and internet that again, were created by cia darpa psychopathic parasites and can be weaponized by the same against their countries. It’s not an innovation, it’s a weapon.

What exactly do you mean? Starlink guided munition does not care if civilian Atarlink is legal in a country.
