At this point I think it’s good OPSEC to err on the side of caution and assume anything involving Musk is a security threat.

He will sell out any country to the highest bidder.

Why single out Musk? Assume any ISP is spying on you and you'll be better off. Use a VPN. He could still track where you are, but not what you're doing.

Why single out Musk?

Because the post is specifically about Starlink and most people are capable of understanding that limiting discussion to what's relevant is not the same as “singling out” Musk.

Anything that cunt touches is a security risk.

Any critical infrastructure operated abroad is a security issue. That's why even Europe developed its own alternative to GPS, to not be entirely dependant of the US?

I'm no expert, but I hardly see it being more complicated?
