If SpaceX were to deny OneWeb the launch space, or charge an excessive fee as compared to other commercial launches, would that have run afoul of anti-trust laws? Seems to me that SpaceX should not be able to be picky about what they launch as long as the cost is paid (within technical limitations, of course).

I don’t think that we should be essentially punishing spacex for their massive success by suddenly telling them they’re required to take every customer at government-approved prices. SpaceX isn’t a utility, and no one/no government has a right to deploy their technology in space.

I don't think he was suggesting a government regulated price, I think he was meaning not charging above the usual commercially offered price. Unlike other operators SpaceX launches have a retail price. They have a tool on their website where they will give you a quote for launching a satellite.
