Hacking group Anonymous have issued a scathing message to Elon Musk, accusing the billionaire that he has 'blood on his hands.'
The ongoing verbal battle between Elon Musk and hacktivist collective Anonymous shows no signs of cooling down.
Earlier this year, Anonymous urged the public to 'act now' against President Trump and Musk, prompting the SpaceX founder to fire back with his own sharp response.
Anonymous initially criticised Musk's comments about 'illegals' in America, then proceeded to accuse both him and his brother, Kimbal Musk, of maintaining long-standing connections with disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein.

The group then further alleged that the brothers committed immigration fraud to obtain US citizenship, while also claiming Musk secured 'billions' in government contracts despite being 'not qualified for' them.
Most recently, Anonymous has called out Musk's dual citizenship, writing on X: "F**k off you aren't even American 🇺🇸."
The @ifindr***rds account mocked this by sharing another Anonymous post stating: "Immigrants choose to live in the US, they are the actual Americans." Musk seemed rather amused and responded with a laughing emoji.
Now the hostility has intensified, with Anonymous directly accusing Musk of having 'blood on his hands.'
In a post on X, the group wrote: "It is clear that @elonmusk has a lot of blood on his hands. He should give away all his money to people in need so he can try to atone. And then go live in a cave. Or fling himself into the sun".
Meanwhile, the Tesla CEO's high-profile government initiative has been quietly disbanded, despite having eight months left on its official mandate.
The Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) had initially pledged to eliminate $2 trillion from the federal budget before Musk apparently halved the ambitious target.
Although the mandate establishing DOGE was supposed to run until 4 July 2026, it has now been revealed that the department was dissolved much earlier than planned. Musk had committed to reducing the US deficit through workforce reductions, budget cuts and other measures.
While the program undeniably affected the government workforce, whether the tech mogul achieved his stated goals was never definitively confirmed.
DOGE's website claims the initiative saved the US federal government $214 billion, while an estimated 200,000 federal employees were laid off by May this year.
However, Scott Kupor, the director of the Office of Personnel Management assured: "The principles of DOGE remain alive and well: deregulation; eliminating fraud, waste and abuse; re-shaping the federal workforce; making efficiency a first-class citizen, etc," adding that there is 'no targeting on reductions anymore.'
