Elon Musk pledged he will make the internet available for free on his Starlink satellite service for victims of Hurricane Helene, but failed to note that would-be users will have to shell out $400 for hardware to support it.
Starlink, a division of Musk's SpaceX, announced last week that it will provide 30 days of "free" internet service, which usually goes for $120 a month, for the thousands of victims of Helene in the southeast lacking phone service or where flooding destroyed fiber cables.
