What it does not test. This does not establish that Hungary or 4iG gains any ownership or operational control over the underlying Starlink constellation, which remains SpaceX's.

How this item counts. No movement: no answer to who owns, who operates, whose law governs or who made the parts changes. Weight 0. 4iG operates links but SpaceX (US) still owns/governs Starlink; no answer changes. European Sovereignty Index
