    Secret Service 'aware' of Elon Musk post about Harris, Biden

    The US Secret Service says it is "aware" of a social media post by
    Elon Musk in which he said that "no one is even trying" to assassinate President Joe Biden or Vice-president Kamala Harris.

    Mr Musk has since deleted the post and said it was intended as a joke. https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c74882jq39vo

    Oh hey, someone should beat Elon Musk over the head with a giant
    aluminum dildo. JUST KIDDING FOLKS!

    Shitposting followed by "gosh, can't you people take a joke" is lame.
    Moreso when you should know better.

    Would be a shame if someone ran him down in a shitty cybertruck. JUST
    KIDDING, EVERYONE KNOWS A CYBERTRUCK COULDN'T MANAGE THE TASK!

    Elon Musk Fought Government Surveillance --- While Profiting Off
    Government Surveillance
    ...
    ...
    However, emails between the U.S. Secret Service and the surveillance
    firm Dataminr, obtained by The Intercept from a Freedom of Information
    Act request, show X is in an awkward position, profiting from the sale
    of user data for government surveillance purposes at the same time as
    it was fighting secrecy around another flavor of state surveillance in
    court. https://theintercept.com/2024/03/25/elon-musk-x-dataminr-surveillance-privacy/
