Someone Is Hacking Crosswalk Buttons to Speak in the Voice of Elon Musk Lamenting the Terrible Sadness in His Life
Briefly

In a striking incident last week, hackers commandeered crosswalk buttons in Palo Alto, Redwood City, and Menlo Park, California, broadcasting satirical audio clips mimicking Elon Musk's voice. These clips poke fun at Musk's public persona and his political affiliations, particularly highlighting his controversial relationship with Donald Trump. The hack leverages growing frustration with ultrarich tech moguls, particularly Musk, as public sentiment shifts amidst ongoing protests against his rightward leanings and influence. The viral recordings illustrate Musk as both a lonely figure chasing validation and a wealthy individual grappling with public perceptions, tapping into widespread anti-elite sentiment.
You know, it's funny, I used to think he was just this dumb sack of sh*t, but once you get to know him, he's actually pretty sweet and tender and loving.
Hi, I'm Elon Musk. Welcome to Palo Alto, the home of Tesla engineering. You know, they say money can't buy happiness, and yeah, okay, I guess that's true.
Fuck, I'm so alone. Will you be my friend? I'll give you a Cybertruck, I promise.
