I'm indifferent on unsold Teslas being targeted, not like law exists in this country anymore. 🤷🏻‍♂️

I am absolutely 100% fucking appalled that people would be ok with doxing Tesla owners. These are real people with families who now have to fear for their safety because they thought it was cool technology when they bought the car. They also may not be able to easily afford to sell the car and buy a new or used one right away.

This does nothing good for anyone and hurts any resistance movement and sadly makes any resistance look like it lacks empathy for fellow human beings just like how what the right is doing shows they lack empathy.

Eh, I think most people would agree with you here but no one would go out of their way to stop or even denounce this cause that's at the very bottom of the list of issues.

No innocent people on this website as far as I can tell

You shouldn't be ok with doxing people even if they are not good people.

It's an all or nothing standpoint. If you are fine with people getting doxxed for some reason you believe to be evil, then you inadvertently say that doxxing as a whole is fine. Eventually someone innocent is going to get doxxed, whether it be by accident (no such list of doxxed people is 100% accurate) or by someone with different viewpoints than you.

I don’t think you’ve looked at the website. The only individuals on there are Elon musk and cash Patel

Dogequest said it will remove the personal details of Tesla drivers only if they can prove they have sold their vehicles.

It is unknown if all the names listed on the map are Tesla owners. In New Jersey, the site listed close to 50 alleged owners.

NBC News spoke to six Tesla owners or their representatives who confirmed that at least some information on the website was accurate, though other owners said that in some cases phone numbers or addresses were out of date.

Considering one of their statement literally says that to prove you shouldn't be doxxed you have to give out even more private info, it seems pretty telling.
