Venezuela’s new “free internet” moment did not happen in a vacuum. The Starlink offer came hours after U.S. forces captured Maduro and his wife, Cilia Flores, and moved them to New York to face drug‑related charges under orders from President Donald Trump.

Local courts responded by naming Vice President Delcy Rodríguez as acting president, while major powers split between condemning the operation and calling for rapid elections.

In that context, whoever controls information flow can shape narratives inside and outside the country in real time.
