ELON Musk's ties to Ukrainian internet access gave him control over the United States government, a new report has suggested.
Without an internet connection, Ukrainian forces would not be able to plan attacks or create a defensive force against Russia's invasion, which began in February 2022. For months, SpaceX provided internet access to Ukraine, but in recent days as the Ukraine military entered territory contested by Russia, they lost internet connection.
Musk's company also recently threatened the Pentagon that they would stop giving Ukraine internet access if the government did not pay them for providing the service, theSpaceX estimated that the bill that the Pentagon would have to foot would total roughly $400million each year.Musk “could turn it off at any given moment. And that would have real operational impact for the Ukrainians.”
After the New Yorker dropped the story on Musk, people were quick to call out the tech billionaire, comparing him to a villain from the James Bond movie franchise.
