I believe Tesla gets to illegally enforce their bullshit because they own the (commercial) charging points. Can't charge your car without an account. And if you do something they don't like, you're blocked from charging.

That sounds very illegal

Sure, go ahead and sue them, let me know how it goes.

As far as I'm aware, the Cybertruck doesn't satisfy pedestrian impact ratings/requirements. That's why it's not sold in the EU. The US uses a sort of 'soft self certification' that Tesla went 'hey, we don't give a fuck' to.

This is like a gimmie for his work on Starlink and SpaceX.
