Private jet travel being a particularly big one. Many companies claim their CEOs (even ones you’ve never heard of) need to travel private for security reasons.
That level of intrusion has to make his life miserable. No real solitude, constant interference with plans, no spontaneity. The modem form of the gilded cage.
But isn't that the framework for every celebrity nowadays?
Because that's what some of these CEOs are - in fact I dare to say that the order of public perception for a lot of these individuals are: celebrity first, CEO of something something second.

I'm not sure if you typoed "modem", but whether deliberate or accidental, perfect!

He's probably the most hated tech CEO out there.

Polarizing, yup. Hated - got a long way to go.
Exactly.
I don't like Musk as a person, but if he died I'd be worried for SpaceX and Tesla.
On the other hand, losing Facebook would probably improve the world.

I also recently read about the US government paying $2 million per month [1] to protect Mike Pompeo,the former US Secretary of State under Trump, due to Iran threats.

Mark won't be paying any income tax on the cost of that security detail.
And a lot of things are vaguely related to security in some way, so can be put on the security budget.
