Read it again. That was MUSK's defense, such as it is. I'm probably swimming against the current here, but I don't think this reflects well on Tesla. The blogger wasn't very polite, but these days everybody's a critic. You expect that in business. IMO, the best response to a post like that is to say "Thanks for your comments; guess we can't please everybody," and move on. To me, what Musk did suggests poor impulse control. There's a dismaying tendency in the US today to celebrate rudeness and impulsive behavior as "refreshing honesty." That's just wrongheaded and damaging. Basically, Musk had a tantrum. I don't think he's helped himself, or his company, or the EV movment, by letting it become public knowledge.
