37 sats \ 5 replies \ @OT 30 Aug \ on: X (Twitter) Banned and Starlink assets seized in Brazil by Supreme Justice Order news
How did they seize starlink assets? They took customers dongles? I don't think they're able to seize the actual satellites.
totally illegal because Starlink is owned by Space X
X and Space X are different companies
It's like seizing Tesla assets

They seized starlink's financial assets that were under the custody of brazilian banks.
Starlink can't expand their operations in Brazil because they have no money to pay for stuff and have no hopes of ever having their money back.
I have no info on whether or not their customers are being serviced, I think they are, but I can't confirm.

The courts will likely revoke Starlink's broadcast license next, making it illegal for customers to transmit within Brazilian territory.
