You can legally act against one, not against the other.

Not exactly a hard question.

No, in very real terms you cannot hold an American corporation responsible for anything any more than you could a Chinese or Russian one.

Individual citizens simply do not have the means, and the consequences for trying are life-alteringly severe. In fact the situation is even worse. If you tried to sue a Chinese company as an American citizen, you'd be laughed at and nothing more. If you tried to sue an American corporation, they have the option to either counter-sue, or drag things out so long that the legal fees bankrupt you, or win the case with their armies of lawyers and demand compensation from you that bankrupts you.

A private American citizen simply cannot hold an American corporation responsible. Our legal system is designed to ensure this.

  • This has nothing to do with the discussion. Do you have a HN poster bot just acting like an annoyed teenager with gripes about everything? 20 day old new account, what happened to the previous ones?

Looking forward to the outcome of those legal processes againt the CEOs, that sit behind Trump at the inauguration. After they stole all the knowledge in the world to train their models. And the current administration is drunk on SpaceX pre IPO shares...how did they get them?

  • I meant to look for an example of Musk losing a lawsuit and I accidentally came upon another two.

    Here and elsewhere you are just running propaganda, knowingly or not.

    • For your information Musk and companies have so far over 950 lawsuits and legal processes for criminal or unethical activity (yes I researched this). Even his data centers and gas turbine deployments are illegal!

      Lost one lawsuit against the same AI mafia, and if you look at the legal details reason was for filling the claim too late.

      He publicly called a hero a Pedophile, and got away with it...in court.

      Now...who do you work for?

  • Given how little voting power these "shares" have (they are effectively SpaceX trading cards/NFTs) perhaps they were simply printed on SpaceX letterhead? If Musk says a person has "shares" who at spacex is in a position to disagree?

    • I would consider editing this while HN still allows it :-)) Or otherwise it may remain here for ever...until the black holes evaporate, as calibration point for the difference between confidence and comprehension...

  • Nothing will happen to anyone.

    Biden preemptively pardoned his cronies, and so will Trump.

    • This is an argument against pardons, except that Trump has used instruments of state power against his perceived enemies (Comey James, Schiff, military occupation of Tim Walz state, etc etc).
