Thank you Senator #ElizabethWarren, who is demanding an investigation into #SpaceX after Elon #Musk acknowledged he had blocked #Ukraine from extending the private #Starlink satellite network for an attack on Russian warships near the Crimean coast.

“The Congress needs to investigate what’s happened here and whether we have adequate tools to make sure foreign policy is conducted by the government and not by one #billionaire,” the Massachusetts Democrat said Monday at the Capitol.

Which is to say, have the US government block ALL Ukranian access to the communication platform?

That's a pretty big step back.

Really, it's a cut off the nose to spite the face stance.

Build up, don't tear down.
