US company SpaceX, owned by billionaire Elon Musk, is suspending service in South Africa for terminals of its global satellite communications system Starlink, local media reported.
๐ฐ The Starlink system will cease operations throughout the country by April 30, media added, following the refusal of the Independent Communications Authority of South Africa to grant a license for Starlink Internet access terminals to operate in the country.
Elon Musk’s company faced a ban in South Africa for not meeting a legal requirement that mandates 30% ownership by historically marginalized groups to obtain telecom licenses, rendering Starlink terminal usage illegal.
