Encrypted how? Each receiver has its GPS coordinates sending the satellites their positions. Musk knows.

Positions yes, but the content can be encrypted so they don't know what they are doing there. See my post on geofencing above and why Elon might hate the idea.

They are also using a Swedish cube sat system and I posted a tweet about it, but I figure it is pretty limited compared to starlink and appears to need a bigger phased array antenna on the ground. There might also be gaps in coverage, but Uncle Sam has alternatives too and other companies and countries like China are working on starlink rivals.

Let's see. The position is on the Black Sea moving toward Sevastopol. Your post on geofencing seems to miss the fact that Musk controls it.
Uncle Sam has an alternative? Then why are they renting from Musk?

Not if the law is changed or they make Elon sign a national security agreement to get any government business, if Elon talks, he gets indicted. It is too valuable a national security asset for allies and America to not be regulated like other military contractors are. If Tiawan, south Korea or other allies are using starlink for military and national security purposes, they will be regulated. The government has a lot of power in this area if congress passes new laws and I can think of a few that would deal with Elon's behavior perfectly, including a geofencing program and national security regulations to protect allies. If Elon passed along location data or even sought to know about an operation or area he did not have a very good reason for being involved in it could result in legal action. Laws will need to be changed concerning this technology, but can't be aimed at one company, except for technical reasons. Elon's behavior does fall under the purview of national security IMO.

Elon Musk’s dangerous tweets are empowering antisemites
If Musk truly wants to maintain X as a free speech platform and demonstrate he is against antisemitism, he needs to stop engaging with antisemites.

What Russia Got by Scaring Elon Musk
The billionaire isn’t the only one who’s been frightened into holding back help for Ukraine.

He knows how to play a narcissistic sociopath; he had lots of practice with Trump.

Well, there he goes again. The dip shit just had another surrogate baby with his genius sperm and Ultra bad ass super AI alien musical star Grimes egg. She has got to be one of the worst musicians of all time. Lol. Her voice is so annoying. I just want to know, can she crack wine glasses with it?
I have been reading small exerts of his new autobiography and there is some funny stuff in it: like how he passed out in Russia from drinking too many shots of vodka. He is so dumb. That bottle could have been poisoned!

Looks like Elon wants to blame Joe, they should have called him? No Elon, you should have called them before pulling the plug on an ally because Russia told you to. Looks like someone is in way over their head and cost Ukrainian civilian lives and some very angry people might take exception to that one day.
