How in the fuck has the board of every company he's on not removed his ass by now?
Or is playing him, though at bestt said folks are practically indistinguishable until they start backstabbing.
We just need to put a posse together and go grab him and deport his ass back to South Africa.
Because if he's removed, the stock prices of any company he's involved with immediately snaps to a more realistic price.
This. If you're a meme stock (Tesla), you have to keep it that way or else everyone is losing their shirts.
I believe he has become a liability. People more and more say they avoid Tesla because of Musk. It is possible Musk's removal would increase the stock price.
He placed people who are loyal to him on that board a long time ago. He can get away with anything now.
Nothing short of hard financial and/or legal ramifications will stifle this kind of election interference. If it's not stopped now, it will take root and fester.
Here's the most important bit I think:
The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) advanced a proposal last week to force advertisers to disclose the use of AI in advertisements on television and radio. The use of mimic voices is already banned for use in robocalls.
“Bad actors are already using AI technology in robocalls to mislead consumers and misinform the public. That’s why we want to put in place rules that empower consumers to avoid this junk and make informed decisions,” FCC Chair Jessica Rosenworcel said earlier this month.
The FCC proposal would not apply to ads and video online and on streaming services, including the video shared by Musk.
Doesn't the overturning of Chevron do exactly that, making it impossible for the FCC to create rules without explicit laws passed by Congress?
Not necessarily. It depends on the exact wording of laws already on the books. Chevron doesn't immediately gut all federal organizations of power. Just some of them, some of the time, and the details matter and will be determined in court one at a time.
It will be fun to see how next generation of liberal leaning car buyers will view Tesla brand
We were honestly considering one, but my wife sited the lack of charging stations if we go on extended trips during vacation, and we both think he's an unmitigated asshole and refuse to buy anything associated with him.
Considering the number of reports that they are garbage, I think we dodged a bullet, lol.
We got a Honda CRV Hybrid and couldn't be happier. Next one is going to be totally electric but not a Tesla
I considered one for a while before he revealed himself to be a racist, fascist, man-child.
Now I'll never own one, I've been looking into the Hyundai EVs and honestly they seem much more reasonably priced anyway.
No, my house was on fire and now I'm homeless. I'm willing to bet absolutely nothing happens to him
Musk also has the right to free speech. He can say what he wants, as his personal opinion.
It’s using technology to impersonate someone that’s wrong, but I don’t know if our laws have kept up. I don’t think there’s a limit unless the person impersonated sues for slander or something. It is further muddied that public personalities have less protection and parody is legally protected
Meanwhile Musk will face no actual consequences and X won't lose any users over this.
But rest assured he has definitely had his wrist (lightly) slapped.
Super funny how Trump getting shot at has had no effect whatsoever on these headlines. 😆
Are we talking about the ad he created? Yeah its for hahas.... except some of the things in that ad was directly from her mouth.
The video was genuinely funny though, when she did her Obama impressions i laughed hard, so hes probably going to claim its a parody skit if he gets in real trouble.
You know, I was going to say something, and then I remembered there is no point. Speaking of no point, you guys checked out these awesome orbs? Completely smoooooth. Much like some brains in proximity of this comment. 🔵
I could see some harsh humour in it as well, but it should clearly be labeled "parody". The way it was shared now is a terrible idea, but we've all seen it coming..
All media should have some securely signed source that's easily viewable and pops up at the start and end of the video (and is visible in the pause screen or on hover, also in case of an image). If it was not signed it should show that as well, like web TLS certificates.
If no internet is available it should show that it cannot verify the source without a connection. There should also be a proposed default date in which the baked in certificate might get less secure, which should also show in the media.
I'd like to believe that as well, but sadly I've seen even more obvious stuff that some of the people I know use to validate their world views, even when it's clearly satire.
They just interpret the whole thing wrong and somehow filter jokes. And they use it, or parts of it, as fuel for their beliefs and share parts within their community without context.
Of course. Perhaps I should add that I'm not from a native-English speaking country. I've seen lots of times where people, mostly not so highly educated (which is a large segment of the population), just don't see obvious satire as it is or in their hate make the jokes part of their argument set.
Partly because they only understand half of it or are willingly blinding themselves and just further fueling their rage.
Just saying, source / certificates might mitigate some of those issues or at least make them easier to debunk for the ones who they forward their 'evidence' too.
I think a service that certifies people identify would help a lot with online trolls. I do not know how it could be best implemented without privacy issues. However i am of the opinion that privacy online and not is very misused. So we can fight a losing battle, or we could all accept being associated with the things we post and say online. And if we accept a online identity that is linked with our real life identity we could uproot and rid ourselves of bots.
