TL;DR Summary

Elon Musk's X Corp. faced criticism and complaints from neighbors and city officials after erecting a giant lighted X sign on top of its San Francisco headquarters without a permit. The sign, which drew 13 complaints, was deemed unsafe and a nuisance, with flashing lights disturbing residents' sleep.
