If they go down... Will the vehicles even work after that? Can they drive offline? Or will Muskrat shut down everything, even the vehicles?

Though it's unlikely, I hope Tesla going down bricks their car software. We might collectively learn something about leasing rights to products vs owning them

Remember the time Sony literally put malware on their CDs that hacked your computer?

I haven't bought Sony products since then, and it continues to amaze me that we collectively didn't learn anything. What kind of idiot would buy anything from a company that booby-traps its products?

I don't think that would change anything in the grand scheme of things, just make problems for owners of the affected devices. I still think he should sit on the next Starship.
