If you provision a range of IP addresses to use specifically for the Ukrainian government, you can just cut access to all of them at once. Claiming an “outage” of 15-30 minutes would be pretty easy to do.
I have no doubt that starlink can geolocate a client device by triangulation or trilateration.
The article states they essentially geo-fenced the area. So when client devices entered that area, their traffic was dropped.
It is, but if you control the endpoints then there is no traffic to be had if you block it.
How did they know what device to block if they don’t know what’s being sent/recieved?
