Yes, it was officially meant for private use and not military use even though I don't believe that he didn't think it would be used for the latter. Nevertheless, it's telling that you have a problem with him cutting Kiev off from using his services for carry out drone strikes against Russia, especially at this crucial point (which might even be an inflection one) in this conflict. Do you want Kiev to continue having the capability to carry out those drone strikes? Is that why you're so angry?

You really think he only delivered 1 unit or terminal ? See the snopes link. do not normally like snopes, but that link has a lot of useful info. Reports are Elon has lost money on the deal. He does not perceive war as good for business, just as Trump would not. His starlink and other businesses would do better without wars. He has even said that. His twitter whistleblowing and Twitter Files is to stop the lies, and get real dialog happening, because, he said, nothing else matters, he meant all his other businesses, etc. He made a peace proposal last October? he got hell for it, just like his convos with Medvedev. When ppl found out he had talks with Putin in 2021 and earlier, all shit hit the fan.
