Starlink signals can be reverse-engineered to work...
I would be more worried about the undersea fiber optic cable. There's 13 cables that provide the vast majority of internet into the country and they're deep underwater where they could easily be destroyed with no defense.

See Nord Stream 1 and 2 for an example.

I'm guessing it's a bit easier to repair/splice a fiber break than repairing gas pipes

Harder if they roll up the cable, or just drag the cut end a mile away.
