Billionaire Elon Musk seemed to relent and offer continued support for Starlink in Ukraine on Twitter Saturday, while also voicing frustration with the US government.
On Saturday afternoon, the SpaceX CEO tweeted “The hell with it,” appearing to give up on trying to shift payment for the system elsewhere.
“Starlink is losing money” despite other companies “getting billions in taxpayer $,” he complained.
But Musk then followed up the tweet with a more promising message about doing good deeds.
“No good deed goes unpunished,” one user replied.
Musk answered, “Even so, we should still do good deeds.”
Musk’s tweets seem to suggest that SpaceX will go on funding the satellite internet service used in support of Ukraine during its war with Russia, despite reports earlier this week that SpaceX has asked the Pentagon to take over paying for it.
