Specifically, he’s the reason Hollywood is where it is. After his company invented movie cameras, he attempted to collect royalties on any movie created by an Edison camera, even having people harass and ruin movie sets and studios if they didn’t (as most movies were being produced in and around New York). So a lot of studios said “fuck you, you wanna collect, you’re gonna have to work for it” and moved across the country to California.
More like what didn’t he do. He had a long list of underhanded and ruthless activities and stole most of his “inventions”.
Come to think of it, I feel like there would be a strong Ven diagram of Musk and Edison. Just a feeling.

Fair enough
