Cards Against Humanity, SpaceX settles trespassing suit

SpaceX settled a lawsuit with the makers of the popular card game Cards Against Humanity last month after they claimed Elon Musk’s company trespassed and damaged their property.

The settlement was reached before a jury trial began on November 3, the Associated Press reported. Neither company revealed the terms of the settlement.

“We are pleased to stand up to a bully like Musk,” Cards Against Humanity said in a statement to the New York Times.

The company told The Times it was prohibited from speaking further about the settlement.

Cards Against Humanity has filed a lawsuit against SpaceX for $15 million.

The complaint, filed in Cameron County Circuit Court in September 2024, said the land along the U.S.-Mexico border remained “in its natural state.” The images showed the ground filled with equipment and materials that did not belong to Cards Against Humanity.

“In sum, SpaceX has treated the property as its own for at least six (6) months without regard to CAH’s property rights nor the safety of any person entering what has become a work site presumed to be subject to OSHA safety requirements,” the complaint reads.

SpaceX has offered to buy the land for half its value, Cards Against Humanity previously claimed. Then they started filing the lawsuit.

“The upside is that SpaceX has removed its construction equipment from our land and we are able to work with a local landscaping company to return the land to its natural state: free of space junk and senseless boundary walls,” Cards Against Humanity told the AP.
