No, it is not, this is the first line of the article:

"ordered the slowdown of a military-grade version of Starlink relied on by Ukraine"

The 'military-grade version of Starlink' = StarShield, the reason they refer to Starlink is because that's what the public knows.

Ah, fair point. I wish the authors would have called it by its actual name.

    NP, Yes, they should have and they should have added that to that line ("called StarShield"). That would have saved a lot of people the confusion.

    Either way, what Musk did was disgusting, it's indirect murder. Not that that's new for him but still, this time the link is a very short one.
