To an even more direct point. Musk bought Starlink just like he bought SpaceX and Tesla. The only things he’s had a direct hand is the original X which thankfully got bought up by Ebay, and Twitter/X which he’s been actively running into the ground.
yes, he bought it, now the question is how he will ruin it. I wouldn’t want him anywhere near my network traffic, Elmo is the type of guy to run Musk-in-the-middle for shits and giggles, even without any other possible incentives.
And before any tls or e2e discussion starts - it’s still possible to learn quite a lot if you are sitting on the channel level if you don’t run vpn on your gateway constantly.
Dislike Elon Musk if you want, he’s a pretty terrible person from everything I’ve heard. But I can’t stand this common leap from “I don’t like him!” to “therefore he can’t actually be good at anything or accomplish anything worthwhile!” Especially when the facts are so easy to come by.
None of these articles are about his contribution to the technical part of the companies, except Twitter. Maybe I misunderstood what point you were trying to make.
Bad people can do good things. And good people can do bad things.
The technology and drive to get this rate of growth is amazing.

Elon Musk founded SpaceX and Starlink. None of your array of links say otherwise, and I daresay you won’t be able to find any because it’s a fact that he did. Here’s a Wikipedia article on the history of SpaceX, here’s an article on Starlink. Starlink was started as a project by SpaceX.
Elon did indeed buy Tesla. He became the largest shareholder in 2004 for $6.5 million, and it only produced its first car in 2008. So he bought it when it was a startup with no products and he grew it from there. I’d say that gives him a fairly “direct hand” in its success.
