If you fancy taking on a popular and wealthy US citizen for what will be a very small payout at the risk of being on the receiving end of a titanic legal bill go right ahead.
''False statements of fact'' that harm the reputation of an individual are not protected by the constitution. His popularity (debatable) and nationality are neither here nor there. Also; no win no fee. Edited by anonymous-user on Tuesday 17th July 23:21

Using your logic Edison, arguably the world's greatest inventor, didn't invent anything after he invented the first industrial r&d lab (Menlo park).
No, Edison was consistently technically hands-on, not just a money-man flitting from hobby to hobby.Musk is technically competent and hands on to a much greater degree than any non owner/founder CEO of any major engineering company.
He's not just some hype merchant who gets the money and then throws the tasks at others. He actually is the chief product architect/CTO at the two companies.
The "Musk Method" (first principles thinking, testing and limited process) is very powerful because it is pretty simple. Both SpaceX and Tesla have been able to achieve technical feats which were previously considered to be far off because working to this method the two companies are basically ~2-3 times more effective at using its engineering resource than the legacy players.
The first few thousand employees in both establishments were personally interviewed by him, (I'm sure he asks more than one question about geometry) the organisational structures were therefore a reflection of his own methods.
But of course he was just some money man.......

Awww. That's really sweet. Musk is technically competent and hands on to a much greater degree than any non owner/founder CEO of any major engineering company.

Seems like Musk has capitulated and offered an apology.
Oh dear.
Nothing that I'm seeing on his ttter feed, or any of the main news sources.Oh dear.
But, even if he has, it's hardly unprompted.

Musk said:
His actions against me do not justify my actions against him, and for that I apologize to Mr. Unsworth and to the companies I represent as leader. The fault is mine and mine alone.
Or, as they say in the playground: "Wahhh, he started it"Reuters
That is a truly terrible non-'apology'.
He even buried it as a reply to some random supporter of his tweeting an Astroturfing support article by some other random (who Elon probably commissioned to write it) rather than making a proper post. And then buried it in the middle of a load of retweets.
His army of Twitter sycophants may be lapping it up but no-one else will.

Hmmmm, great apology :-( Love the cartoon though.
At the moment I would imagine that all the cave divers (and everyone else involved) is rightly lauded in Thailand. Musk attacking them like he has (and by extension smearing the country as a whole) must really be doing wonders for his own popularity there.
Idiot!
