Related: About this forumElon Musk is accessing his private network via a Starlink transceiver at GSA headquarters.
I edited the title to stick more to the facts. There had been some unsupported speculation on my part with the previous title, "Elon Musk is accessing federal databases via a Starlink transceiver."

Turns out, it was a Starlink transceiver quietly connected to Musks private satellite network. The device and raised serious concerns. Why? Because this setup violates federal laws designed to protect public data.
