What follows is a thread of Big Tech executives mentioned within the newly released Epstein Files.

So far this includes: Elon Musk, Tim Cook, Bill Gates, Larry Ellison, Sergey Brin, Steven Sinofsky, Richard Branson, and Steve Ballmer.

Note: Some of these Tech Executives had extensive communication with Epstein, others were simply mentioned or talked about.

It's all over the map. Details below. Elon Musk had multiple emails with Jeffrey Epstein specifically discussing plans for parties including the following question from musk:

"What day/night will be the wildest party on your island?"

Elon responded on X with the following:

"No one pushed harder than me to have the Epstein files released and I’m glad that has finally happened.

I had very little correspondence with Epstein and declined repeated invitations to go to his island or fly on his “Lolita Express”, but was well aware that some email correspondence with him could be misinterpreted and used by detractors to smear my name.

I don’t care about that, but what I do care about is that we at least attempt to prosecute those who committed serious crimes with Epstein, especially regarding heinous exploitation of underage girls."

A YouTuber named @Theo is demanding that the @FFmpeg project (the open source video encoding tool used across the computer world) kick out a contributor (the person running their X account) — and has offered a $20,000 bounty to FFmpeg if they give in to @Theo’s demands.

Theo, who appears to have a personal vendetta against the person behind the @FFmpeg account, has released a YouTube video where Theo repeatedly screams that the FFmpeg account administrator is a “motherf***er”.

In response, a small number of FFmpeg contributors are proposing a “vote” on whether or not to remove X account access from that contributor (and collect the $20k bounty).

Other FFmpeg contributors are pointing out that @Theo’s actions are those of a bully (manipulating a project and attacking individuals with large bounties, screaming profanities and name calling).


Update to the “Theo offers $20k bounty to remove FFmpeg contributor” story:

@Theo says this has been “privately settled” and has deleted his X post offering the monetary bounty.

Theo also says he has been “tone policed by Lunduke of all people.”

The Leftist Activists of Open Source immediately celebrated the shooting of Charlie Kirk.

Many such messages (including from @RedHat employees) — with many reshared by leaders of Open Source projects.

The Leftists over on Mastodon continue celebrating the shooting of Charlie Kirk.

Including Tech Journalists.

The Lunduke Journal has obtained an internal email from Red Hat (subsidiary of IBM) CEO Matt Hicks, which announces a number of massive DEI related changes at the Open Source giant:

- Red Hat will remove the racist, illegal “diversity requirements” for 3rd party suppliers.
- The DEI communities will be “transformed” into “Employee Resource Groups”.
- DEI related information and language will be updated or removed from Red Hat’s public websites. This internal email from Red Hat’s CEO, supplied by multiple whistleblowers, also states that the company will “comply with the applicable laws” while still continuing “to recruit in places and at events that introduce Red Hat to a broad audience.”
