For those that have had enough of the Elon Musk worship online.

No flaming, baiting, etc. This community is intended for those opposed to the influx of Elon Musk-related advertising online. Coming here to defend Musk or his companies will not get you banned, but it likely will result in downvotes. Please use the reporting feature if you see a rule violation.

Opinions from all sides of the political spectrum are welcome here. However, we kindly ask that off-topic political discussion be kept to a minimum, so as to focus on the goal of this sub. This community is minimally moderated, so discussion and the power of upvotes/downvotes are allowed, provided lemmy.world rules are not broken.

Post links to instances of obvious Elon Musk fanboy brigading in default subreddits, lemmy/kbin communities/instances, astroturfing from Tesla/SpaceX/etc., or any articles critical of Musk, his ideas, unrealistic promises and timelines, or the working conditions at his companies.

Tesla-specific discussion can be posted here as well as our sister community /c/RealTesla.

How did it take more than 8 years to legally arrive at that obvious conclusion?

The judge agreed with the state DMV’s request to suspend Tesla’s sales and manufacturing licenses in the state for 30 days as a penalty for its actions, but the DMV stayed the order and is giving Tesla 60 days to comply. Tesla will now have to either drop the Autopilot name or ship software to its cars that make them autonomous, or it will have those licenses suspended.

The company has signaled it won’t comply, though. Tesla said in a post on X that: “Sales in California will continue uninterrupted.”

This is absolutely insane!!

The times we live in.

Exactly, that's the most insane part IMO.
I hope the court will take very serious action to uphold the decision.
Like having police close down Tesla sites for deliveries.

Who's going to stop Tesler? It's all computer!

They have now had 8 extra years to put together a system that would provide this service, but they haven't. Do you think my job would keep me if I told them I need 8 more years to deliver a promised product?
