I've seen a Firefox plugin called block the rich.. I guess it wouldn't fly if they called it block Elon
Not used it so don't know if it's any good

It blocks these:
Block List
Immediate observation: really cool, also blocks comments about Elon Musk (including my own lol) Sadly doesn't block images
Does it block the word "Musk"? Is it case-sensitive? Honestly curious, especially since some of these last names can refer to either the person or a noun.

I don't blame anyone for completely disregarding it as fraud.
Well sure it wouldn't be fraud if you simply don't lie about what the car does
