Gavin Newsom's strong rebuke of Elon Musk emphasizes the seriousness of misinformation regarding looting laws, asserting that such actions hinder real responses to crises.
Newsom stated, "Stop encouraging looting by lying and telling people it's decriminalized. It's not, it's illegal as it always has been," highlighting the legal stance against looting.
The arrests made amid the fires have drawn critical attention, with Newsom emphasizing a zero-tolerance policy for looters, in stark contrast to the misinformation circulating online.
Musk's repost of a misleading claim regarding the decriminalization of looting indicates a growing divide between tech moguls and government responses to disaster situations.
