The CEO of SpaceX said on Saturday that some governments want Starlink to block only Russian news sources, but not Ukrainian sources.
"We will not do any of that unless at gunpoint", he wrote in a tweet.
Starlink has been told by some governments (not Ukraine) to block Russian news sources. We will not do so unless at gunpoint.

Sorry to be a free speech absolutist.
Musk also noted that SpaceX's focus is now on signal jammer mitigation rather than cyber defence, which will cause Starship & Starlink V2 to be delayed slightly.
The company's chief executive said earlier this week that its Starlink satellites could be targeted in Ukraine.
