Elon Musk continues to use his genius innovations for good.
After the oppressive Islamic regime in Iran cut off internet service for their civilians, Elon Musk turned on Starlink Internet service.
In response to a post from Mark Levin , Musk announced on X:
The Jerusalem Post noted:
Musk’s decision to activate Starlink in Iran comes after the Islamic Republic’s Communications Ministry announced temporary limits and disruptions to internet service nationwide. “In view of the special conditions of the country, temporary restrictions have been imposed on the country’s internet,” a statement from the ministry read.
As you may know, Starlink is Elon Musk’s satellite internet service that gives people access to high-speed internet virtually anywhere in the world — even remote locations to places at war or after a natural disaster where traditional internet infrastructure may get destroyed.
This is a huge deal for Iranians to be able to communicate with each other. Not only to stay in touch, but to coordinate and rise up against the regime.

Starlink connects directly to SpaceX satellites, bypassing Iran’s ground infrastructure. That means even during government-imposed shutdowns or censorship, users can still get online, and reportedly more than 100,000 inside Iran are doing that.
During the 2022 “Woman, Life, Freedom” protests, Starlink let Iranians communicate, share footage, and connect with the world when Iranian networks were shut amid blackouts.
Also, Starlink is testing “direct-to-cell” capabilities, which would let Iranians’ smartphones connect without a dish. This could dramatically expand reach and avoid visibility issues. Starlink supports free expression, protest coordination, and access to global information.
