This is part of a broader rolling catastrophe. Musk is evidently seizing control of the Office of Personnel Management

Nasa took down their applied sciences page and is evidently scrubbing the data

Lots of other data sets are disappearing too:

At this point, being a Musk supporter is nothing to be proud of.

I cancelled a Model 3 order and went with a different EV a few years ago. I was starting to soften my stance, and considering a Tesla for my next, but at this point, I have a hard time accepting the idea that buying one wouldn't send a message of implicit support.

Not just that, but I don't want my reputation tarnished.
