En plus il dit qu'il continuer de "défendre la liberté d'expression".
Quel bullshit. Le mec a poursuivi et intimidé un employé pour près de 167 millions. L'article est pas mal long, mais voici quelques bouts intéressant :
When Elon Musk Tried to Destroy a Tesla Whistleblower
It started with a Twitter meltdown and ended with a fake mass shooter. A former security manager says the company also spied and spread misinformation.
By the larger-than-life standards of Elon Musk, the story was far from a blockbuster. On June 4, 2018, Business Insider reported that Tesla Inc. was scrapping or reworking 40 percent of the raw materials at the Gigafactory, its huge battery plant in the Nevada desert. The article cited a source who figured the inefficiency had cost Musk’s electric car company $150 million, describing giant piles of scrap materials in the factory. Tesla denied the report, and a few hours later, the world moved on.
The world, that is, except Elon Musk. Although he wasn’t asked about the Business Insider story the following day at the company’s annual meeting, he stewed for weeks, dispatching a team of investigators to try to figure out who’d shared the information with the press.
The leaker, they determined, was one Martin Tripp, a slight man of 40 who’d spent his career in a series of low-level manufacturing jobs before finding his way to the assembly line at the Gigafactory. Tripp later claimed to be an idealist trying to get Tesla to tighten its operations; Musk saw him as a dangerous foe who engaged in “extensive and damaging sabotage,” as he wrote in a staff memo. He implied that Tripp had shared the data not only with the press but also with “unknown third parties.”
Could larger forces be at work? Musk wondered out loud. Could Tripp be coordinating with one of Tesla’s many enemies—oil companies, rival automakers, or Wall Street short sellers? “There are a long list of organizations that want Tesla to die,” he warned.
On June 20, the company sued Tripp for $167 million. Later that day, Tripp heard from the sheriff’s department in Storey County, Nev. Tesla’s security department had passed a tip to police. An anonymous caller had contacted the company to say Tripp was planning a mass shooting at the Gigafactory.
When the police confronted Tripp that evening, he was unarmed and in tears. He said he was terrified of Musk and suggested the billionaire might have called in the tip himself. A sheriff’s deputy attempted to cheer up Tripp and then called Tesla to tell the company that the threat, whoever had made it, was bogus. Tripp wasn’t dangerous.

Bref, y a quand même des similarités entre Trump et Musk, qui au minimum sont 2 assholes qui menacent les gens dans pouvoir à coup de procès. Les 2 disent qu'ils veulent défendre la liberté d'expression, mais quand de quoi fait pas leur affaire, ils veulent cancéler la personne et lui clouer le bec.
La seule chose que je vais donner à Musk c'est d'avoir créer la Model S et surtout la Model 3 qui a enfin convaincu la concurrence de se réveiller et des faire de quoi de mieux que la Prius ou la Nissan Leaf en plus d'avoir simplifier l'auto électrique. Pis les Tesla elles-mêmes sont loin d'être parfaite que ce soit la qualité de l'assemblage à l'auto pilote promis par Musk depuis des années et qui n'est toujours pas au point.
