Billionaire Elon Musk slammed Indian-American entrepreneur Vinod Khosla for allegedly blocking public access to a beach next to his expensive California mansion.
Musk wrote on social media platform X, “Wow, so crazy that @vkhosla put this sign on a public beach,” sharing a photo of a sign that read, “no plebs allowed.”
His post sparked an online debate, with many users questioning the legality of preventing people from accessing the beach.
Musk also accused Khosla of hypocrisy, saying, “Vinod says we should send tens of thousands of unvetted migrants to small towns throughout America, but he didn’t even want to let the public walk on his beach.”
In another comment, Musk added, “I’m throwing a party on Vinod’s beach! For cuisine, I’m thinking BBQ.”
The post generated significant attention and ignited a debate about the ethics and legality of blocking public access to beaches.
Khosla earlier criticised Musk for his conversation with Donald Trump about climate change. In August, Khosla referred to Musk’s views on carbon dioxide levels as “dumb.”
This controversy around Khosla’s beach access dates back to 2008, when he bought a $32.5 million beachside mansion. He later installed a gate to stop the public from reaching the beach through his property.
Khosla’s lawyers argue the gate is legal since he owns the land, but many disagree. The legal battle continued for years, reaching the US Supreme Court in 2018. The court decided not to hear Khosla’s case, effectively upholding a lower court’s ruling.
