Tesla is again facing a US government investigation, this time for "securities or wire fraud by misleading investors and consumers about its electric vehicles' self-driving capabilities". We all know Full Self Driving is a party trick at best, a widowmaker at worst, and Tesla even told the Californian DMV it is only an SAE Level 2 system, but that hasn't stopped Elon spouting absolute bullshit about FSD for years so he can juice the stock price to a level beyond any semblance of reality. The US DoJ and SEC have finally woken up to this scam and I hope they're reaching out to any whistleblowers who hopefully, have more integrity than Musk and don't turn a blind eye to protect their share options.
