We know that DoD is paying for Starlink service in Ukraine, but there are no public details of the contract. Not sure how paying for a service is a subsidy.

"Opposing Autocracy" is an interesting choice of words, since everyone who's up in arms about this is implying that the government should force a private company to participate in any war on whatever terms they dictate.
