I believe that international treaties require that each orbiting object be marked with the responsible nation, and that that nation has jurisdiction over it. I don't know how the International Space Station is handled. I could probably quickly search for it, but I shouldn't be spending time on this at the moment anyway (working hours).
Yeah, though honestly Elon could actually make his own country at this point and/or launch from international water.
