Do it! Burn your money fighting a major government. Then maybe you can be poor and I can never hear about you again.
Unfortunately he's burning the governments money too so I wouldn't be too excited about his constant lawmongering.
I think often cases are won or settled based on who has the most money to keep them going.
Oh please. A government doesn't need expensive lawyers for cases like this, especially if the legal challenge happens in its territory. A simple "lol no" could be sufficient.

Thanks for pointing this out. Now I'm a bit angrier about him doing this.

Elon is gonna lose. You can call it free speech, but Australia doesn't have free speech.
Freer than the US. Yous guys can call each other cunts and it's cool. We can't do that!
This cunt gets it.
Love those friggin cunts.
I've actually started using this more regularly recently to help spread the good word here in America, cunt.
Also in the US corporations can sue people for defamation, unlike in Australia.
Under the uniform defamation legislation which applies in every State and Territory, a corporation can't sue for defamation unless it is an “excluded corporation”. An excluded corporation includes a not for profit or a company which employs fewer than 10 people.
Americans really like the idea of being "the most free country" when that's just objectively not true.
Bring it on, crybaby. My country's legal system is pretty fucked, but not like the US, so I expect this may actually backfire on him.
Can someone give this fucker a hobby so he shuts the fuck up for a while.
This IS his hobby!
Yeah when i was typing it i thought that as well..
He seems pretty emotionally fragile - can we pressure him into doing stuff? i.e if people start posting stuff on Twitter, such as:
"I heard Elon musk was too cowardly to go and film the ice wall at the edge of the Earth. I bet he's one of those lame libtard round-Earthers"
If enough people chipped in, surely we could make this happen.
Elon Musk would be so cool if he did some of that skyscraper parkour. Not many are brave enough for something as awesome as that. All my friends and I would buy Teslas even at the price before it was dropped if its CEO was that cool.
The boys over at Internet Today on YouTube are right; Musk has a lawsuit fetish.
Likely one of m-a-n-y….
Big deal. If he ripped a fart in public, he’d sue the mexican restaurant he ate at the night before.
He uses lawsuits to bludgeon because he can afford an unlimited number of them. All because China Inc saved Tesla and made him rich…can’t wait to see him lose it all to BYD (who he smugly laughed at a decade back - who’s laughing now, Chuckles?)
Him and trump are that fucking kid that would yell "oh yeah, well I'll sue you (with daddy's money" because they never had their jaw broken.
"The supreme court of australia judges that australia is innocent. Now pay our court fees sucker." That's a PR move.
I've no idea how somebody can have so much money, yet still have a face like a sock filled with marbles.
I'm not knowledgeable in Australian law. Would someone more well versed be able to hit me with a tldr of how this would work? Does Australia have "free speech" similar to what I understand as an American? Does the government there have the legal authority to make that sort of request? I'm not really worried about whether they should or shouldn't have that authority, or the general ethics surrounding this,I just kind of want to know what the law says
Australia has implied freedom of speech only, and only with respect to political and economic communication AFAIK.
https://www.vgso.vic.gov.au/implied-constitutional-freedom-political-communication
Like many countries Australia has ruled against hate speech in the past and such speech is not protected.
For example the racial hatred act limits speech: https://humanrights.gov.au/our-work/racial-hatred-act-what-racial-hatred-act
There are also laws governing content on social media platforms, including both older media standards and newer laws designed to regulate companies such as X or Facebook.
https://www.esafety.gov.au/newsroom/whats-on/online-safety-act
There are other relevant laws to consider as well but while I am a cyber security expert and not a lawyer I don’t expect Musk to have a good time in Australian courts.
If I'm understanding the esafety act correctly, the Australian government has the authority to fine and issue injunctions, which I'm going to assume could lead up to a ban in the country. Seems like a pretty straightforward L for Musk
Injunctions yes, injections no, Australia banned capital punishment in all jurisdictions since 1985.
Well, it was a hopeful typo I guess lol. Thanks for the information!

that's right elon, waste more money
going to 0 and looking forward to it
That's a bootable offence!
Another worthwhile and fruitful decision from Elmo Nazi. Yes, it’s easy to see why so many considered him a genius.
Gavin bellsing is at it again
Didn't this guy die yesterday?
Nah, knowing our luck, the cunt will live to 120.
Fortunately he’s engaging in the anti fascist work of poisoning Elon musk.
considering how deep his pockets are; i would expect him to be the beneficiary of the world's efforts to figure out how to live forever.
a future society will be calling him god-king.
He's probably going to upload himself in every neuralink chip installed in some poor rube's brain...then we'll have a whole army of them. Like a racist 'Lawnmower Man'...
Nice cunt on cunt action.
