that it CNBC Which talks about the Tesla game on Thursday.
The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) appears to be conducting a violent investigation against Musk and Tesla primarily because Musk is an outspoken critic of US authorities, a court document from Tesla said Thursday.
The message is part of the fallout from Musk’s Twitter message in 2018, which turned into an investigation by the US Financial Services Authority, the SEC, and finally a settlement. The settlement was to limit Musk’s use of social media, which meant, among other things, that Musk’s Twitter messages for the future had to be pre-approved by Tesla’s legal director.
But now Elon Musk and Tesla are unhappy with how close the Securities and Exchange Commission has come to investigate compliance with the settlement agreement.
The Securities and Exchange Commission’s completely exaggerated efforts appear to be calculated to curtail his freedom of speech rather than reasonably enforce existing rules, the letter states.
Twitter controversy
The lawyer also wrote that Musk and Tesla hoped that a settlement with the financial authorities would stop their “harassment” of Musk.
