But, Starlink terminals have GPS in them, surely? Aren't they geofenced anyway?

They're using them in Ukraine. Can't geofence the country and still allow the Ukrainians to use them.

So if they can isolate the russian starlink terminals... and they have gps.. sounds like targeting coordinates for ukrainians to me.

They're not registered as Russian, many were stolen. If you just start handing out their coordinates the chances that some are civilian are too high.
