I was dismayed to learn this weekend about a Tesla employee who had conducted quite extensive and damaging sabotage to our operations. This included making direct code changes to the Tesla Manufacturing Operating System under false usernames and exporting large amounts of highly sensitive Tesla data to unknown third parties.
The full extent of his actions are not yet clear, but what he has admitted to so far is pretty bad. His stated motivation is that he wanted a promotion that he did not receive. In light of these actions, not promoting him was definitely the right move.
However, there may be considerably more to this situation than meets the eye, so the investigation will continue in depth this week. We need to figure out if he was acting alone or with others at Tesla and if he was working with any outside organizations.
As you know, there are a long list of organizations that want Tesla to die. These include Wall Street short-sellers, who have already lost billions of dollars and stand to lose a lot more. Then there are the oil & gas companies, the wealthiest industry in the world - they don't love the idea of Tesla advancing the progress of solar power & electric cars. Don't want to blow your mind, but rumor has it that those companies are sometimes not super nice. Then there are the multitude of big gas/diesel car company competitors. If they're willing to cheat so much about emissions, maybe they're willing to cheat in other ways?
Most of the time, when there is theft of goods, leaking of confidential information, dereliction of duty or outright sabotage, the reason really is something simple like wanting to get back at someone within the company or at the company as a whole. Occasionally, it is much more serious.
Please be extremely vigilant, particularly over the next few weeks as we ramp up the production rate to 5k/week. This is when outside forces have the strongest motivation to stop us.
If you know of, see or suspect anything suspicious, please send a note to [email address removed for privacy] with as much info as possible. This can be done in your name, which will be kept confidential, or completely anonymously.
Looking forward to having a great week with you as we charge up the super exciting ramp to 5000 Model 3 cars per week!
Will follow this up with emails every few days describing the progress and challenges of the Model 3 ramp.
Thanks for working so hard to make Tesla successful,
Elon
My comment: He's right. The most serious offense was obviously tweaking the manufacturing operating system. That would be really bad news. This could be the reason for all the recent delays with hitting manufacturing deadlines. Selling sensitive data would also be bad, but Tesla would probably get over that quickly.
I hope Tesla succeeds, quite frankly they are really cool cars, and Tesla was the first to make an electric car many people drooled over.
Remember what electric cars were before Tesla. Before Tesla, the best thing ever made was the EV-1, which had a practical range of 80 miles. Tesla hit the market with a 200 mile range on day 1. Granted, you had to drive it like a grandma to get that, but it could be done. They have only gotten better since. Tesla proved an electric car could actually be practical. They still have the best electric cars. No one has beaten them. I believe a majority of the people ripping Tesla are paid trolls. There might be a few legit people who got drawn into the ridicule, but predominantly the problem is trolls.
Elon has gone too far to be left alone by the "hate America" crowd. When Nasa basically died, there was Elon, keeping decent space launches in the American realm. It is obvious to me that the elite don't want that for America. They want America rendered irrelevant entirely. So troll troll troll, and troll more, until people begin to hate Tesla, and hate Elon Musk. Sort of like "women's studies" for economics. Economic "feminism". Make people hate what has a chance of doing the most good. That's exactly what the media is doing to Tesla, and Elon in general.
Here's the kicker - So what if Elon received billions in government subsidies? WHAT DID WE, IN EFFECT, GET OUT OF IT? ANSWER: A MORE EFFICIENT, HIGHER TECH NASA. Elon Musk KICKED NASA'S ASS with 5 percent of the budget. That's what we got,there are a few people who really need to think about what they complain about. So what if Elon wrote himself a 2+ billion bonus out of Tesla's state funded coffers. HE IS GOING TO DO MARS WITH THAT. How much would it cost via NASA?
Iranian diesel engine
This is a clear cut case of sanctions forcing Iran to go it alone and produce their own stuff. They will definitely at least still have trains if this engine is any good. It probably is.
BOMBSHELL: There was never a Hillary E-mail investigation
If no one was a target of an investigation at any point in time, it means no investigation ever happened because you have to have a target to investigate. It was all a fake phoney show. A scam on the American people. OF COURSE HILLARY WALKED, no one investigated anything.
Instead, the FBI and others actively worked to scrub all evidence, to make sure no investigation ever could happen at a later date.
IT REALLY IS TIME TO DISBAND THE FBI, and I'd add the CIA and a few others also.
