    For many years, I considered buying a Tesla model S. But I hesitated because the privacy invasion conducted by modern automobiles on their drivers - not just Tesla - puts me off.

    Now I will for sure never purchase any Tesla vehicle.
    And I closed my Paypal account.
    And I left Twitter.
    And I will never get the Starlink service.
    And I will never use OpenAI or xAI products if I can avoid it.

    At this point, I think it’s a moral duty to boycott any and all products or services that Musk invests in or makes money out of.

      As a welder and mechanic, it’s good that you’re staying away from Teslas. Those things are poorly built and poorly fit together. I’ve seen cheap Temu toy cars with better fitting then Teslas.

      Wh-why Paypal? As far as my research went, he invented X, his own and badly coded banking service, then he bought it PayPal, was a shitty CEO and in addition to that implemented his own code that made things worse - which got kicked out of the company by the employees
