He's a military contractor.
Yes with Starlink which the military threatened they might nationalize if Musk sabotaged Ukraine access again.
I honestly don't think Musk's value as a military contractor is very high, and probably (hopefully) not enough to protect him from criminal liability.
Misinformation
Yes because snopes is a better source than CNN, WaPo, BBC, AP News, The Hill, Reuters and on and on.
Also he has admitted it himself:

So why don't you just butt off with your bullshit already? You are hereby reported.
Jesus christ dude. There's quote from the author himself, Walter Isaacson who is the person from whose book the whole claim originated from.
You believe him when the narrative suits you but you don't when it doesn't. Talk about cognitive dissonance lol
Enabling Starlink in Crimea would have been against the sanctions to Russia by the US. Literally illegal.
Anyway I'm done with you. Don't bother replying.
