Decrypt’s Art, Fashion, and Entertainment Hub. Discover SCENE As recovery and relief efforts ramp up in Los Angeles after a week of devastating fires, Tesla CEO Elon Musk said on Sunday that he is sending a fleet of Cybertrucks and Starlink terminals to Southern California. Musk said the plan is to use the Cybertrucks to provide mobile Wi-Fi hotspots to areas without internet access. On Tuesday, powerful winds caused several wildfires in Southern California to spread out of control across Los Angeles County. The hardest-hit areas included Pacific Palisades, which burned 23,713 acres, and Altadena, which burned 14,117 acres. A Los Angeles Sheriff’s Department spokesperson told Decrypt the phone lines in the Altadena area are still down and calls are being rerouted. “I was shocked,” they said when asked about the Cybertruck delivery. “I was told we received several Cybertrucks during our daily briefing.” On Sunday, Musk announced plans to position Cybertrucks equipped with Starlink terminals in a grid pattern, offering free Wi-Fi in the hardest-hit areas of the greater LA and Malibu regions. “Apologies to those expecting Cybertruck deliveries in California over the next few days,” Musk wrote on X. “We need to use those trucks as mobile base stations to provide power to Starlink Internet terminals in areas of LA without connectivity.” Massive Cybertruck convoy to help with Starlink WiFi connectivity in Los Angeles pic.twitter.com/YHirSVfLQR
