South Africa denies bending the rules to give Musk's Starlink preferential treatment

South Africa's communications minister refuted the claims that a draft policy easing Black ownership requirements for tech firms was designed to favor Elon Musk's Starlink. Minister Solly Malatsi defended the directive before Parliament, denying it was specifically for Starlink, despite Musk's criticism of the ownership laws. The policy aims to boost competition by allowing more operators into the market.
