Musk then announced it was costing him $20 million a month to provide the service and cut it off, saying either the [[NATO]], the [[Pentagon]], or [[Zelensky regime]] should continue the service.  Musk was immediately added to the [[Ukrainian Nazi]] [[Myrotvorets|kill list]].  However, Musk's aerospace deals with the Pentagon are quite lucrative, the service was restored, and his name removed from the kill list.

Musk then announced it was costing him $20 million a month to provide the Starlink service and cut it off, saying either [[NATO]], the [[Pentagon]], or [[Zelensky regime]] should pick up the cost.  Musk was immediately added to the [[Ukrainian Nazi]] [[Myrotvorets|kill list]].  However, Musk's aerospace deals with the Pentagon are quite lucrative, the service was restored, and his name removed from the kill list.

Musk evidentially wasn't aware of the kill list until Canadian journalist [[Eva K Bartlett]] alerted him to it via Twitter, and Musk asked her for a url.  [[Wikipedia]] Ukrinazibots immediately set upon Bartlett.  Bartlett had been reporting on the kill list since 2019, when her name was added.  Bartlett said in September 2022, "Returning to the issue of [[Myrotvorets]] [the so-called "Peacemaker" kill list), it’s absolutely appalling that a database like this exists, openly calling for the murders of people like myself, yourselves, 327 children, simply because we are speaking about [[Ukraine]]’s [[war crimes]] and we’re speaking about the [[corruption]] within Ukraine. This list presents a very real threat to Ukrainians themselves, not only to [[journalist]]s and to people who are speaking out, but to Ukrainians within Ukraine proper. Many of these Ukrainians have already been disappeared or killed."<ref>https://kurtnimmo.substack.com/p/elon-and-the-nazis</ref>
