Vinod Khosla's 'no plebs allowed' sign on public beach triggers Elon Musk to plan a BBQ party
Elon Musk criticized venture capitalist Vinod Khosla for restricting access to a public beach near Khosla's home, following a previous clash over Musk's climate views. Musk shared a picture of a sign reading "no plebs allowed" and mocked Khosla by suggesting a BBQ party on the beach.
Elon Musk, a tech millionaire, chastised venture investor Vinod Khosla for not allowing "plebs" on a public beach near his home. This comes after Khosla criticized Elon Musk for his climate-talk masterclass with Donald Trump. In August, he described his opinions on CO2 ppm (parts per million) levels and their repercussions as "dumb".

Why has Khosla put up a 'no plebs allowed' sign?
According to sources, the Khoslas paid a staggering $32.5 million for a seaside mansion in 2008. To prevent the general public from using that access point to get to the beach, he immediately installed a gate on the road that leads to the cove.
Given that Khosla owns the land, his attorneys contend that the gate is legal; nonetheless, many disagree.
Following a protracted legal battle, the case reached the US Supreme Court in 2018, where the justices declined to hear Khosla's appeal, confirming a lower court judgment.
Khosla is also facing criticism from the State Lands Commission, a California government agency, for his plans to close the beach to the public.
