He doesn't care, he wants the power of the platform to be able to push the propaganda. It's a cesspool there now by comparison. 

My understanding is the starlink stuff is being donated in certain areas and being paid for in others, as is the case with many countries and many states where he profits from the business. Kudos to him for waiving some fees in certain areas. 

Don't forget another starlink client , Russia, who use his starlink equipment to outfit/navigate drones that kill Ukrainians.

That's a lot of typing to say he lied and they called him out even though they agreed to let him lie.

Oh, okay.

You can trust that guy if you choose to. 

I do not. 

They keep finding downed drones with the gear onboard. 

Thanks for the article, though. Maybe that's legit, but if it is captured equipment, why is it so easily functional for the unintended purpose?  Technologically speaking, that should be easy to prevent, no? I'm sure if you have a starlink receiver in your home and you don't pay your bill, it will cease to operate. Why not here?
