Ammon News - Starlink says it is providing free broadband services to people in Venezuela until February 3, following the US operation that ousted President Nicolás Maduro.
The US-based service, owned by billionaire Elon Musk’s SpaceX, delivers mobile broadband via a network of orbiting satellites.
In a post on X, the company said it pledged “continued connectivity” to Venezuela, a country that is known to grapple with online censorship, with Maduro’s government having previously blocked Facebook, YouTube, Instagram and other platforms in the past.
Metrics from Netblocks show a sudden loss of internet connectivity in parts of Caracas on Saturday, which it said corresponded to “power cuts during the US military operation.”
Local media reports also suggest there is no internet connection in some parts of the capital.
