> SpaceX chief Elon Musk said Wednesday that any reported disruption to Ukraine's use of the Starshield satellite communications system would be the US government's responsibility, not his company's. He said the US government owns and controls Starshield, while the US military and ultimately the president decide any limits on speed or use.
