It would appear he had a DoD contract for the service depending on the actual contract he may be in violation.
That said this sub has a serious war hawk problem. Non-interventionism isn't some evil philosophy.
Musk intervening is not non-interventionism.
Musk seeking the contract and providing starlink certainly isn't but the broader concept of not providing a good or service of benefit to one side in a conflict is emblematic of non-interventionism. The most true incarnation of non interventionism in this kind of situation would have been to never get involved in the first place.
I'm in no way implying musk isn't and idiot without consistent guiding principles or beliefs.
