In which case an investigation would still be in order. If Musk is not in fact a traitor who actively worked against US interests and is not actively colluding with an enemy of the state indirectly resulting in civilian deaths, I would care to know as well.

Also, there's been 0 word from Ukraine saying they successfully used Starlink in Crimea prior to this problem.

If it truly was on in the past, they could claim he's lying as they used it successfully.

All we've heard from Ukraine is them condemning the move but nothing backing up it was actively turned off.

Them making a claim would further warrant an investigation.

Given the contradiction, something is probably worth doing ya.

But we are in the alleged territory not admitted territory.

A whole investigation is probably overkill though. I imagine it won't be hard for SpaceX to show their active coverage at a given time and just send the report to congress.

No need for hearings or anything like that.

40 hryvnia says that those logs will be mysteriously missing, or they simply "don't keep logs that long in the past" when it's requested.

I think I'd be surprised if they say they don't keep them that long. I have a feeling there might be some requirements imposed on them by the DoD in that regard.

It'd be nice to see something more official from SpaceX on the matter.
