  • Elon Musk's former employees are trying to use White House credentials to access General Services Administration tech, giving them the potential to remote into laptops, read emails, and more, sources say.

The article from WIRED discusses Elon Musk's interactions with the General Services Administration (GSA) regarding the use of his private jet for government business. It highlights how Musk, known for his companies like Tesla and SpaceX, has been pushing for the GSA to allow him to use his private jet for official government travel, arguing it would be more efficient and cost-effective. However, the GSA has strict regulations on travel reimbursements, which do not favor private jet usage due to cost considerations and transparency issues. The piece also touches on Musk's broader influence in Washington, where his companies have significant government contracts, and how his personal involvement in policy discussions often blurs the lines between his private interests and public service. The article portrays Musk's efforts as part of a larger pattern where influential tech moguls attempt to bend government rules to their advantage, raising questions about fairness, accountability, and the influence of private wealth in public policy.
