Musk has long faced concerns about his Trump administration work posing a conflict of interest with his private companies.

The use of Starlink has been adopted by at least one additional federal agency since President Donald Trump began his second term, and it’s being considered by more.

By signing deals with India’s two biggest telecom players, the tech tycoon and Trump adviser has improved his odds of breaking into an enormous market.

Ambani's Jio Platforms announced that it would bring Starlink into India, opening doors to the world's largest consumer market.

The Commerce Department has changed its rules in a way that could open the door for Starlink, Elon Musk’s satellite internet service, to become part of a federal $42 billion grant program to bring high-speed service to rural and poor areas of the United States.

Indian billionaires Mukesh Ambani and Sunil Mittal signed deals to bring Elon Musk’s Starlink internet services to India, promising to get remote areas of the world’s most populous country online.

A watchdog group has asked the Transportation Department’s inspector general to investigate whether the Federal Aviation Administration’s (FAA) business with Elon Musk’s Starlink violates conflict of interest laws.

On Thursday, March 13, the Campaign Legal Center (CLC) filed a complaint with the U.S. Department of Transportation's acting Inspector General. The complaint asks them to investigate if Elon Musk unlawfully influenced government decision-making and Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) contracts involving his satellite business.
