Personally I think Khosla is doing everyone a favor here. All the free publicity over CA’s right to public beachfront, and it’s great motivation for the legislature to strengthen the laws around guaranteeing that access.
Without entitled billionaires fighting the system, it would be much harder to drum up support for stronger protections enshrined in law. They could call it the Khosla Act.
In all seriousness, CA should enforce the law they wrote, not the law they wish they had. But also, good luck if Khosla wants to so much as upgrade a circuit breaker, if I understand the law correctly, any permitted work on the property is an opportunity for the local building inspector to require a new public access road to be put in.

He asserts that the state government doesn't have the right to such fine grained and arbitrary control of private property.
