Come for the video of a Tesla Robotaxi driving double the speed limit and hitting speed bumps like they are Mario Kart ramps…

… But stay for the conversation about social media silos and corporate disinformation campaigns!

    Edit: Aren’t you a mod on the SpaceX board? I’m not sure I trust you when you say you’re “not a fan of Tesla or Musk” considering you run a fan club for one of Musk’s companies XD

    I’m the automotive equivalent of a muckraker, so yeah, Tesla does enough weird stuff that I talk about them a lot. They’re hardly the ONLY news I cover.

    Take this article, for instance, it was on the front page of Hacker News for a couple days, got decent circulation in European automotive magazines, too: https://fuelarc.com/tech/pop-up-ads-in-your-jeep-the-latest-stellantis-innovation/

    Believe what you like, but the videos in that article are just videos, it’s not like those aren’t first-hand driving footage just because you dislike where you found them.
