On: Finding an Easter Egg in Microsoft Bob

When you see something like this, the board wanted him out anyways. This was the perfect opportunity. If Elon Musk has an affair with an employee the Tesla Board will release a solemnly worded statement and say that he’s being required to attend certain trainings and produce certain mea culpas.

I think Elon Musk would simply say ‘none of your business’. If he followed the rules he wouldn’t be tweeting about Tesla from his personal account.

I'm not aware of rules preventing the CEO from talking about the business from a personal account.

There are such rules in place for Elon Musk specifically as a result of a settlement with the SEC, but he ignores them.

(The rule he's ignoring is not that he's not allowed to tweet about Tesla from his personal accout, it's that he has to have such tweets vetted by a lawyer.)

I am aware of those specific rules. I have no evidence available to me that he is breaking them.

We make up rules to attack anyone we don't like. :)
