As a Tesla owner and enthusiast, it’s disheartening to see the recent news about the company’s shares falling after deliveries dropped 8.5% from a year ago. The hype surrounding Tesla’s innovative electric vehicles seems to be losing steam, and I can’t help but wonder why. Is it a loss of enthusiasm for electric vehicles in general, or is Elon Musk’s erratic behavior and controversial statements causing potential buyers to turn away?
I remember when I first heard about Tesla’s plans to release a $25k car, and I was eagerly waiting for it to hit the market. However, years have passed, and there’s still no sign of this affordable option.… Continue reading
Elon Musk’s X bans transgender Harvard lawyer for naming a neo-Nazi. This is not surprising coming from a man who often presents himself as a free speech absolutist, yet seems to pick and choose which voices deserve to be heard. The incident surrounding Caraballo being banned raises questions about the consistency and objectivity of X’s policy enforcement, especially when it comes to sensitive political content.
It is clear that Musk’s affiliations and personal biases play a significant role in the decisions made by his platform. The fact that he would choose to ban a transgender Harvard lawyer for simply naming a neo-Nazi, while claiming to support free speech, is hypocritical at best.… Continue reading
have a long history of valuing land and natural spaces. Boca Chica State Park, with its unique ecosystem, has been a place of great importance to local residents and environmentalists alike. So when news broke that Texas had unanimously approved handing over a portion of this beloved park to Elon Musk’s SpaceX, the backlash was immediate.
Many saw this decision as yet another example of corporate welfare, with Musk benefiting from public resources at the expense of taxpayers. After all, SpaceX has received billions in government contracts, including from the US Government, making Musk a favorite of politicians and regulators.
But, as I delved deeper into the details of the land swap, I began to see a different side to the story.… Continue reading
As I sit here and reflect on the absurdity of the situation surrounding the lawyers who voided Elon Musk’s pay as excessive, only to turn around and demand a staggering $6 billion fee, I can’t help but shake my head in disbelief. As a lawyer myself, it’s disheartening to see how the legal profession is portrayed in cases like these.
The idea that lawyers are charging an effective rate of $289,000 per hour is mind-boggling, especially when compared to Musk’s compensation package equivalent of $2,450,000 per hour. It raises questions about the true value of our work and the ethics behind such exorbitant fees.… Continue reading
Elon Musk suing OpenAI and its CEO Sam Altman for breach of contract is quite the interesting turn of events. The core of the issue seems to revolve around OpenAI shifting its focus from a non-profit open model to a private for-profit business. This move appears to go against the initial founding principles and values of the organization, causing Musk to take legal action.
The public scrutiny surrounding this lawsuit sheds light on the alleged abandonment of OpenAI’s ‘irrevocable’ non-profit mission in favor of profit. Musk, who co-founded OpenAI in 2015, has since moved on to establish his own AI company, xAI.… Continue reading
The recent revelation of a Chinese retailer caught selling Starlink terminals to Russia has sparked a wave of shock and disbelief among observers. Starlink, a satellite internet service provided by SpaceX, is not officially sold in China, which raises questions about how these terminals ended up in Russian hands through the black market. It is interesting to note that Starlink requires users to provide the intended location for the device, and if it is used in a different area, the service simply refuses to work until the location is changed. This means that SpaceX has a way of tracking the terminals and the users who are being billed for the service.… Continue reading
Yulia Navalnaya, the brave wife of Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny, recently had her social media account suspended.

It is disheartening to see the power dynamics at play when it comes to silencing voices that speak out against oppressive regimes.
The link between Musk, Russian influence, and censorship is a concerning one. With the suspension of Yulia Navalnaya’s social media account, questions arise about the role of powerful individuals like Musk in suppressing dissenting voices.… Continue reading

Musk’s decree comes after acclaimed author Stephen King trolled the billionaire by referring to the social media platform as its original name.

Russia is using SpaceX’s Starlink satellite devices in Ukraine, according to sources. This revelation is both surprising and concerning, as it raises questions about the potential misuse of technology in a conflict zone. As an individual with a background in the telecom industry, I have followed Elon Musk’s Starlink project closely and have had some reservations about its implications.
Starlink is a revolutionary idea that aims to provide global internet access through a network of satellites. While its mission is commendable, the current situation in Ukraine highlights a flaw in its implementation. The lack of control over who can access the network poses a serious security risk, especially in a sensitive geopolitical situation like Ukraine.… Continue reading
