Elon Musk’s Starlink offers free internet access in Venezuela following U.S. airstrikes and Maduro’s arrest

Elon Musk’s Starlink is offering free broadband internet service to users in Venezuela through February 3, following U.S. airstrikes and the capture of ousted leader Nicolás Maduro. The satellite internet provider said that service credits were being added to both active and inactive accounts as it monitored evolving conditions. Starlink, a subsidiary of the aerospace company SpaceX, provides internet access via low-earth-orbit satellites and requires users to purchase separate equipment to connect to the service.
