The claim is a major departure for the service, which has long been known as a destination for posting short snippets of text.

Yeah thats a great way to stay up to date with technology, just pretend they dont exist!

What ever would we do without updates on technological marvels such as:

  • Fraudulent car
  • Fraudulent train
  • Low-poly cosplay truck
  • Animal abuse brain microchip
  • Kepler syndrome ISP
  • Self-destructing rocket to mars
  • Social media for Nazis?

The car is fine, and honestly the software is too, it's the label that's the problem. It's like if Tesla had invented the first really good cough medicine but named it "Death Cure Resurrection Elixir (and cough preventative)" and they have this mustache twirling clown villain selling it.

I don't blame anyone for completely disregarding it as fraud.

Well sure it wouldn't be fraud if you simply don't lie about what the car does
