Imagine spending 10 years to build a server in space to avoid some law and next month government changes the law

The thing that people miss in this is that the feature they’re seeking by putting servers in space is only to have servers outside of any jurisdiction, with the advantages that it might bring

This is 1 million% what’s at play here. Tech bros HATE that they have to deal with stupid laws, and putting a server outside of the jurisdiction of literally every country is a dream. A giant server ship has to dock, it needs fuel…not so with something in orbit (in Elon fantasy land anyway)

Whatever company owns it will be responsible for it. That company will answer to whoever it needs to here on earth.
