Washington, DC — On Monday, November 2, 2026 a clandestine group of underground activists calling themselves the “Capytistas” published a website and data visualization containing previously unreported home addresses connected to Elon Musk and Tesla’s executive management, along with a trove of research connected to Tesla’s institutional investments and the company’s largely secretive supply chain infrastructure.
The group, which formed in 2025, and remained underground during its investigations, stated their efforts began as a response to financial cuts and government regulatory capture by Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency (D.O.G.E.) but grew in scope to include investigations into a rogues gallery of oligarchs seeking to leverage their wealth to undermine democracy.
“We were gutted to see Musk and his sycophants hollow out agencies that offered life saving foreign aid, care for veterans in need, and support for the arts and humanities,” said an anonymous representative for the activist group. “We were even more disturbed to witness how the oligarch class positioned themselves within the current administration, and to observe first-hand their efforts to undermine democracy. So when our group began working together, we jokingly said we should pick our own cute mascot to counter how DOGE stole and corrupted the Shiba Inu meme. Then, someone suggested a Capybara and we decided to run with it.”
The Capytistas will publish their work in phases focusing on specific oligarchs and their efforts to undermine democracy, capture or cripple governmental regulatory bodies, profit from prisons and deportation flights, and consolidate and capture media institutions. The Capytistas published Phase 1 today and this trove will be added to in the weeks ahead to include thousands of records displayed on individual web pages organized by a user experience they are calling their “Oligarch Navigator.” Some toplines from today’s release as well what can be expected from releases in the weeks ahead include:
- 32 home addresses connected to Elon Musk and Tesla’s executive management were published today in Phase 1.
- Detailed information and addresses connected to 14 of Tesla’s largest institutional investors holding a total of over 1,001,899,236 shares of TSLA valued at approximately \~$401 billion were published today in Phase 1.
- New information regarding 39 companies comprising Tesla’s largely opaque supply chain infrastructure were published today in Phase 1.
What will be published in the weeks ahead:
- The Capytistas will publish 153 (mostly unreported) home addresses connected to oligarchs and their enablers.
- Over 3,500 datavis records containing detailed information regarding institutional support, investments, market making, and supply chain support for a slate of oligarchs with an estimated shared wealth of \~1.4 trillion.
- Exclusive public interest reporting regarding the private lives, criminal exploits, and security lapses of oligarchs who have enmeshed themselves in our government.
“The No Kings Protests marked some of the largest mass mobilizations in recorded US history, but—while mass mobilization is well and good—the oligarch class seem undaunted by those efforts and have only accelerated their efforts to seize political power, capture regulatory bodies, and eviscerate our democracy,” said the Capytista representative. “We aren’t out to create a new organization, but rather to inspire creative action in others and provide resources and tactical tools that map the constellation of secondary and tertiary targets that make up the anatomy of oligarchy.”
“While Elon Musk and the other individuals we target will undoubtedly try to frame our work as extreme and stochastic, what we’re actually doing is using radical accountability to build an offramp that might prevent the inevitable violent and tragic outcomes the oligarch class has been steering us toward. In the end, we may be doing them a favor.”
“Democracy is not dying, it’s being killed …and those who are killing it have names and addresses”

About the Capytistas
The Capytistas are an underground grassroots intelligence agency and strategy hub working to create radical accountability for the oligarch class. Assembled in early 2025 in response to the cruel and deadly cuts made by Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), they began exploiting human infiltration, open source intelligence methods, and traditional investigative tradecraft to identify then map the inner workings of the network of oligarchs who seek to dismantle democracy, disenfranchise voters, capture governmental and regulatory bodies, and leverage their businesses and technologies to divide communities.
The Capytistas are a non-partisan, international collective of anti-fascists, activists, intelligence workers, investigators, journalists, technologists, and artists. The Capytistas do not exist to build power, but rather share information and tools that can inspire individuals to action and assist existing movements in their efforts to actualize global justice and liberation.
