Wired reveals SF tech firms' police protection costs after Altman attack
Wired published municipal and contractor records showing how much San Francisco tech companies paid for police protection and private security after the attack on Sam Altman’s home and an attack at OpenAI’s offices. The records list payments that funded SFPD overtime details and private security contracts for corporate campuses and executive residences. Those security expenditures rose after the incidents, moving more of the public safety burden onto private firms. This matters because it reveals how corporate safety spending reshapes city policing budgets and creates unequal access to protection for wealthy companies and residents.
"A lawsuit between two of Silicon Valley’s biggest tycoons goes to trial Monday in California, the culmination of a years-long bitter feud. Elon Musk has accused Sam Altman of betraying the founding agreement of the nonprofit they started together, OpenAI, by changing it to a for-profit enterprise."
"As Elon Musk’s trial against OpenAI begins this week, legal experts and prediction markets agree that he will enter the Oakland federal courthouse as an underdog."
Can we just have them do an old fashioned duel at sunrise? Then there'd be at least one less of them afterwards at least...
Awwwww. Two rich grifting dicks having a bit of a spat. Not exactly important in the spectrum of our current events.
