Saturday, March 8, 2025 - United States billionaire Elon Musk has made a claim against South Africa.
He claimed Starlink is not allowed to operate in South Africa because he
is “not Black.”
He stated this on Friday. In a post on X, he wrote: “Starlink is
not allowed to operate in South Africa because I’m not Black.”
The dispute over Starlink’s operations in South Africa has been ongoing
for some time.
In August 2023, the South African government officially banned the
import of Starlink kits.
The decision has prevented citizens from accessing the satellite
internet service.
Despite being operational in 17 African countries, including
neighbouring nations such as Namibia, Mozambique, and Botswana, South
Africa—the continent’s largest economy—is not on the Starlink network.
