A US tech expert has warned Australia the world's richest man Elon Musk "could do what wanted" with his Starlink satellite internet network and wouldn't put it pass him to meddle in Australia's affairs.
The article from MSN discusses the potential implications of Elon Musk's influence on Australia, particularly in the realm of technology and social media. It highlights concerns raised by experts about Musk's control over platforms like X (formerly Twitter) and his broader ambitions in areas like space travel, electric vehicles, and AI. The piece warns that Musk's actions and decisions could significantly impact Australian users and businesses, especially given his tendency to make unilateral decisions that affect global users. There's a cautionary tone about the need for Australia to be wary of Musk's power, suggesting that his influence might not always align with local interests or regulations. The article also touches on the regulatory challenges posed by tech moguls like Musk, urging for a balanced approach in dealing with such influential figures in the tech industry.
