Yes, Tesla is implementing CCS standard 15118 Plug and Charge (as should all
other Charge Vendors).
"The user-convenient and secure Plug & Charge feature that envisioned with ISO
15118 enables an electric vehicle to automatically identify and authorize
itself to a compatible charging station on behalf of the driver, to receive
energy for recharging its battery. The only action required by the driver is to
plug the charging cable into the EV and/or charging station, because the car
and the charger identify themselves to each other by exchanging certificates
which were provided beforehand via a certificate pool to facilitate payment.”
That’s the ‘billing' bit that I mentioned earlier, the adapter will be passive
so communications will go right from the car to the Supercharger or other NACS
stations.
As to the fuses, I think they are so rare to blow that you’ll be glad to be rid
of an adapter that did blow, something really bad happened and could have
caused other damage. If you wanna check the connection more circumspectly
you’ll need active monitoring and w/o a power source you’d need a battery and
that could die waiting for you to use the adapter so probably not going to have
any built like that.

Dumb question, maybe, but assuming that the terminal is open to all EVs, why
do they need to identify vehicles at all?
If the user presents a valid credit card, or maybe an RFID card if you must,
then let him charge. Credit cards work just fine for gasoline filling
stations.
What am I missing here?

Yeah, this. Musk scares me. I can totally see him doing something like
this, even if it means losing revenue.
He seems to get weirder and more unpredictable by the day. Watching him
flush ~$30 billion in value while making Twitter into his own personal
playground was quite eye--opening.
I really wonder if he's starting to lose it, maybe partly from overwork.
There'll be adapters to CCS-charge those new NACS Fords and GMs - right?
