If the CEO decides she doesn't like someone, she won't be able to "Musk" employees as easily as in the United States.

Musk is known for "On the spot" firings:

Elon Musk has a well-documented history of on-the-spot terminations, a practice often referred to internally by employees as "rage firings." While Musk has publicly denied firing people in a blind rage, multiple investigative reports, biographies, and high-profile public interactions outline definitive examples of him terminating employees instantly.

Reported in a deep-dive investigation by Wired, this is considered the quintessential example of an Elon Musk "rage firing":

  During a stressful production ramp-up for the Model 3 at the Tesla Gigafactory, a young, enthusiastic engineer was asked by a red-faced Musk why a conveyor belt had stopped moving. The engineer explained that a safety sensor was triggering and blocking the line. Musk reportedly shouted, “You’re a fucking idiot! Get the fuck out and don’t come back!”. The Result: The bewildered engineer was told by his manager minutes later that he was officially fired on Musk's direct orders. The culture became so tense during this era that managers reportedly told subordinates not to walk past Musk’s desk out of fear that a wrong look or a word out of place would get them fired on the spot.

The board should remove itself and have the shareholders elect a new slate of board members, but you know that will never happen. Human nature always gets in the way.

Not a lawyer.

They can scan for neighbors wifi connections, but as soon as they try to use it, they're entering a potential legal minefield (If they are caught)

It boils down to the fact that they technically need permission to use an open wifi network.

Some laws which come to mind:

1. The Federal Computer Fraud and Abuse Act (CFAA)
2. Federal Trade Commission (FTC) Act (Section 5)
3. The Video Privacy Protection Act (VPPA)
4. Trespass to Chattels
5. California Penal Code Section 502

after the election is over. This is a soothing ploy by the red states.

The problem is that there is only a tiny window where the voters have all the power, and that is at an election. The rest of the time, they have to put up with who they elected. Short of recall (And in some states recall can't be done) there is not much the voters can do about a "loose cannon" they elected. The have to suck it up. Politicians know this and some of them take advantage of it. The flock camera issue is just one of a myriad of examples.

These plug in solar panels will not operate if the grid is down, so you can't use them in an emergency. They are used to offset your electric bill. For bill offsetting it doesn't matter what phase/leg you are connected to. Power will either be consumed locally, or if there aren't enough loads on the phase/leg it is attached to it will offset the load on the other leg or be exported to the grid where you will get a credit (although the credit may be small).

The easy copper has been mined.

with open arms.... After the election.

When something gestinks politically near a midterm election (what's that you say... no election is to be held regardless of what the constitution says) , you can count on it coming back after the politicians who would have voted for it get a new lease on life.

-- because we are the phone company.

They just over-lash the existing copper when overbuilding with fiber here in So. Cal and therefore make it harder to recover in the future.

to stuff this genie back in the bottle unless the Supreme Court rules that the government is effectively performing a warrantless blanket search (i.e. dragnet).
I see a few possible outcomes for a Supreme Court Ruling:

1. The Supreme Court rules that Flock can continue to capture license plate data without a warrant and give it to whomever pays for it. In other words the citizenry can suck it up with the only option being federal legislation (Highly Unlikely given the current make up of the federal government) 60% probability.

2. The Supreme Court rules that police departments are bypassing 4th amendment protections indirectly. The police can use Flock data but they must have a search warrant in place. 39% probability.

3. Overwhelming proof that Flock is enabling nefarious government and non-government organizations to gather data and that there is a track record of systemic violations of the 4th amendment. The proof submitted to the court overwhelmingly shows the citizenry is no longer secure in their person, papers and effects via the 4th amendment and is powerless to change that. The result All Flock cameras must be disabled either forever, or until the Flocks system is reconfigured to incorporate rigid 4th amendment safeguards. 1% Probability.

Launched to polar orbits. It's the safest location to do so outside of Alaska.

Yet he doesn't seem to be able to decouple from it completely.

1. Vandenburg Air force base is the premier launch site in the United States to launch satellites into polar orbit due to launch safety concerns.
2. Musk's Hawthorn design center designs the rockets and the motors. I suspect Musk can't close this down unless he finds other talented engineers to work in southern states with shitty labor laws.
3. Musk hasn't closed the Tesla plant in Fremont but of all the locations which could eventually close, this could be the one.

You have the marker, and they won't issue you a long term care insurance policy, or Exclude alzheimers from it.

The test will be up front and mandatory.

Next come data-driven robot soldiers like in Star Wars

It is not that far-fetched now.

Do you have a TV^H^H vape license said the TV^H^H vape license goon to the consumer.,,

Actually, the "resistor" could be the heating element but PWM'd at a low duty cycle.
