This interview mentions that Starlink’s user agreement includes a clause that says that Mars is “a free planet” and “that no Earth-based government has authority or sovereignty over Martian activities.” This is actually true. Once on Mars, disputes are to be settled according to good faith placed in Musk:
12. GOVERNING LAW.
… For Services provided on Mars, or in transit to Mars via Starship or other spacecraft, the parties recognize Mars as a free planet and that no Earth-based government has authority or sovereignty over Martian activities. Accordingly, Disputes will be settled through self-governing principles, established in good faith, at the time of Martian settlement.
