Reminder that Tesla will kill critical videos of FSD, but still to this day has not taken down the fabricated "full self driving demo" from their own website since 2016: https://www.tesla.com/videos/autopilot-self-driving-hardware...

Tesla (and fanboys) say that they are clear about the limited capabilities of Autopilot and FSD when in reality, they indirectly support all fan-videos by letting them live on YouTube while DMCAing critical videos.

They want you to believe that FSD is more capable than it truly is.



> Tesla will kill critical videos of FSD

Examples?


The implication is that Tesla DMCAed the video in TFA.

Obviously, I don't know if that is true that, 1 the video was DMCAed and 2 that Tesla sent the DMCA takedown request.


I think most likely the person who created the video must have done it. I don't see how Tesla would own the copyright. This also isn't the first time one of these videos has gone viral, and the other ones were not taken down.


How was it fabricated?
