There is now a fine for using it. The Minister of Digital Development, Innovation and Aerospace Industry of Kazakhstan Bagdat Musin said at a press conference in the government that the issue of using the Starlink Internet in the country will be legally regulated only next year. Despite the fact that Kazakhstanis have already begun installing Starlink terminals, using this technology for personal purposes in Kazakhstan is illegal and you can get a fine for it. To regulate this, it is necessary to introduce a number of amendments to the laws regarding the use of foreign satellite systems by citizens of the country.
