- Russia started employing remote controlled geran/shahed drones with connection implemented via Starlink relatively recently. The initial stopgap fix was to shut off connection at speeds over 90km/h.
- Ukraine had to compile the database of serial numbers (or whatever identifiers they use) of all Starlink units they have to whitelist them and there was pushback from the people on the frontlines who said that reporting ownership of their Starlink terminal may result in their commanders "redistributing" said terminal away from them, so it took time to make the whitelists happen.
