SpaceX Starlink to provide free emergency service for all phones: Elon Musk

Elon Musk announced on Wednesday that SpaceX’s satellite internet subsidiary, Starlink will provide free emergency service access for mobile phones worldwide. This initiative means that Starlink will extend its coverage to all wireless users in cellular dead zones, even if they aren’t subscribed to the satellite-based service.

In a post on X (formerly Twitter), Musk noted that this service would be available at no cost to users, subject to approval from individual country governments.
