Weird sentence structure. It makes it sound like the company is accused of being Israeli.

> aimed at Starlink users and that it was the No. 1 bidder on Starlink traffic in more than 100 countries, including several where Starlink itself was banned or restricted. Some counter espionage program? Maybe spies use Starlink instead of radios these days.

Increasingly obvious and annoying, even to most normies, that Israel is nowadays the main obstacle not only to lasting peace in the middle east (and various other regions) but also a major menace to anyone valuing their right to (digital) privacy.

Why wouldn't they? We already know that militaries and governments use StarLink. I'll bet dissidents and terrorists use them as well. I'm not offering my support of this, but it's just not a surprising state of affairs.
