So if they can isolate the russian starlink terminals... and they have gps.. sounds like targeting coordinates for ukrainians to me.

Not necessarily. They may have identified all the serial numbers of terminals legitimately used by Ukraine then simply blocked all terminals not on that list.

Surprised it took this long

I bet its really challenging to do inventory after distribution if your records were junk.

if your records were junk.

Ohh wow... All those export controls and records are still shite?!

No way to tell how that would happen!

They're not registered as Russian, many were stolen. If you just start handing out their coordinates the chances that some are civilian are too high.
