Ask HN: How does Starlink work for IP address/ASN internationally?

I was curious how Starlink would work when connected in international locations? Would it show a US IP address? Would it show a Starlink ISP ASN? For comparision - cell phone tethering plans, you can be "anywhere" in the world, but the roaming telcom provider will (lack of a better word) "tunnel" your connection to your local telcom so you could be in China, France, UK but you would have the country of origin IP address/telcom provider ASN? E.g. T-Mobile from USA, but in Europe would show that you're either in California or Kansas.
