TECH NEWS – The hacker collective Anonymous has resurfaced to take aim at Elon Musk, calling out the billionaire’s hypocrisy and unchecked influence. The group warns that Musk’s aggressive actions could lead to serious consequences.

Elon Musk is no stranger to controversy. As the force behind Starlink, Neuralink, SpaceX, and Tesla, as well as the owner of X, his actions constantly make headlines. However, this time, the South African billionaire finds himself on the defensive, as the infamous hacker group Anonymous has emerged from the shadows to directly challenge him.

Anonymous Takes Direct Aim at Musk

According to JeuxVideo, Anonymous has launched a scathing attack on Musk, accusing him of abusing his power and manipulating financial markets. The group claims that Musk’s social media activity, particularly his posts on X, has deliberately influenced cryptocurrency values, leading to massive financial losses for small investors. They also argue that Musk unfairly takes credit for Tesla and SpaceX’s advancements, which should instead be attributed to the engineers and scientists driving innovation.

Additionally, Anonymous has highlighted concerning labor practices within Tesla factories, alleging that employees are subjected to extreme workloads, relentless pressure, and substandard wages. Furthermore, they accuse Musk of dismantling content moderation policies on X, allowing misinformation and hate speech to flourish. According to the hacker group, Musk’s devoted fanbase has created a toxic “cult of personality” that aggressively silences critics.

Political Influence and a Growing Conflict

Anonymous also warns of Musk’s increasing political influence, particularly his ties to Donald Trump and his role in promoting DOGE cryptocurrency. The group claims that Musk’s ambitions extend beyond the business world and into governmental affairs, where his sway could have lasting policy consequences. They fear that his unchecked influence is steering decision-making in dangerous directions.

The hacker collective’s latest actions suggest that this is just the beginning of a prolonged cyberwar against Musk. Given Anonymous’ track record, the conflict could escalate in the coming months, with more direct digital offensives against Musk’s companies and projects. What began as an exposé could soon evolve into a full-scale cyber battle.
