"www.cnbc.com/amp/2018/07/16/british-diver-mulls-legal-action-after-elon-musk-calls-him-pedo-guy.html "Elon Musk has called a British diver who helped rescue schoolboys from a flooded cave in Thailand ‘pedo guy’ on Twitter. The entrepreneur’s outburst came after diver Vern Unsworth told Mr Musk to “stick his submarine where it hurts” after describing his offer to help with a miniature submersible as a “PR stunt”." The diver is thinking of taking legal action against Mr Musk. What do you think he should do? " I'd take him for every penny he's worth!!! There are many names you can call people but that is bang out of order. | |||

"How many followers does musk have on twitter? I'm guessing thousands. People get attacked and even killed because of false allegations of being a paedophile, I'd sue the fuck out of him personally " Absolutely, take legal action for deformation of character. It's too higher profile accusation to ignore and the sort of false accusation that can really damage someone's life. | |||

The diver started the childishness by all accounts but I agree it could be dangerous for him and he should sue. | |||

"I like Musk but he dropped the ball here. People make mistakes, he should own up and go apologise to the guy. " With a fat cheque to show he really is sorry! | |||

"I like Musk but he dropped the ball here. People make mistakes, he should own up and go apologise to the guy. With a fat cheque to show he really is sorry!" Probably but i doubt he's as rich as you think. Tesla has never made a profit. He's no Bill Gates. | |||

"The reports seem to suggest that Musk was pushing for his sub to be used, even though he was told repeatedly by various expert divers on site that it wouldn't get through even the first sump (flooded section), Musk's guys were getting in the way and the guy he insulted had asked them to leave a few times, before he issued the idea as to what Musk could do with the sub. I used to be a big Musk fan, but one or two other reports seem to paint him as someone who has lost a little touch with reality." Ah that would explain the diver's comment then. I'd be irate too if I was trying to rescue someone and a team were getting in the way. | |||

"It would likely need to be in the US courts, which Musk will be more familiar with than this guy. " Yeah but he’s just settle out of court to avoid the negative publicity. | |||

But the other difference is that Musk can't take dividends from his company because it doesn't make profit. Whilst Microsoft has long been one of the most profitable companies in the world. | |||

"He should find a US lawyer who isn't a fan of Mr. Musk." I don't think that would be hard. However, lawyers aren't too bothered about who the represent or claim against. There will be plenty willing to chase the money. | |||

"The divers were risking their lives to save these children and their coach. What a despicable thing to say about anyone. I’d sue him for every penny he has. " . Good luck, my experience is you'll end up broke. | |||

"Musk has apologised and removed the tweet. The diver says 'it's not finished yet' " The apology effectively admits he was wrong. That opens the door... | |||

"Musk has apologised and removed the tweet. The diver says 'it's not finished yet'" I think if the apology was as public as the original slur and it's enough to make sure that everyone knows the diver isn't a paedophile and, it was just Elon being silly... I'd take the apology. Life's to short and the secret to a long one, sometimes, is knowing when to quit! | |||

It's like when news papers apologise. Huge front page slur...itty bitty apology hidden somewhere near the back. There should be a law forcing news papers to make the apology in the same place as the original slur. | |||

"He's suing him! https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-45551895 Mr Musk has repeated his allegations recently. What a guy." You have to hand it to the diver, he's only asking 57 grand in damages, I'd have gone for at least another zero on the end! | |||

"Very bizarre The only bizarre thing in all this is Musk. He’s a nut job (allegedly)." He's achieved a lot, you're rarely going to find a mild mannered, well balanced person in that position. Extreme results, extreme people. | |||
