Are there any Iranians outside of Iran know how to contact people in the country? Anyway to find out if family and friends are ok?

Supposedly Elon activated Starlink over Iran, per X.

I heard that. I was wondering if that puts people in danger, can't the Iranian government just some how pin point where those frequencies are getting broadcasted from?
