It shows that they really are spying on all Tesla drivers all the time and they’ll publish that information at the drop of a hat to save face.

Tesla doesn’t lie about accident data which is also known to not be true. https://electrek.co/2025/08/04/tesla-withheld-data-lied-misdirected-police-plaintiffs-avoid-blame-autopilot-crash/

They’ve accused the Tesla of malfunctioning essentially, publicly, so Tesla have told the public exactly what actually happened.

ok what’s your point
They’re not “spying”, they’re logging analytics in a black box essentially, for situations exactly like this.
They’ve accused the Tesla of malfunctioning essentially, publicly, so Tesla have told the public exactly what actually happened.
