World Cup 2022: Elon Musk appears in Qatar for final between France and Argentina

Elon Musk, the billionaire who is the CEO of Tesla and Twitter among other companies, was in Qatar for the World Cup final between France and Argentina.

Elon Musk, the Tesla and Twitter CEO, appeared in Qatar on Sunday just ahead of the World Cup final before Argentina and France.

Musk’s companies SpaceX and Starlink reportedly partnered with Qatar Airways to send two World Cup balls to space and back. Once back on Earth, the balls were sent to Qatar on Qatar Airways and arrived at Hamad International Airport.

The World Cup will attract global attention but the spotlight has been on Musk as well. He recently suspended a handful of journalists for allegedly violating the company’s doxxing policy. He lifted the suspensions following a 24-hour poll, which asked whether the accounts should be restored "now" or "in 7 days."

Musk was scrutinized for the suspensions.

The company was also put back into the spotlight with the latest Twitter Files release. The sixth part of the series revealed the FBI’s ties to the tech giant, "as if it were a subsidiary."
