Author of Musk biography retreats from claim mogul thwarted Ukraine attack in Crimea

Walter Isaacson now says that while Ukrainians thought Musk had deactivated the system, in actuality it had never been activated in that area, part of a decision made to avoid the system being used for military offensive action.
