Comment Alleged To Have Stolen Gigabytes of Data (Score 1) 153
So when is it that "employee alleged to have stolen" is changed to "employee who has admitted stealing."
The Cambridge English dictionary defines allege as: - to say that someone has done something illegal or wrong without giving proof: To Allege is to imply doubt. There is no doubt. Mr. Tripp has admitted to "writing software that hacked Tesla’s manufacturing operating system ("MOS") and to transferring several gigabytes of Tesla data to outside entities. This includes dozens of confidential photographs and a video of Tesla’s manufacturing systems." It is alleged that: - beyond the misconduct to which Tripp admitted - he also wrote computer code to periodically export Tesla’s data off its network and into the hands of third parties. His hacking software was operating on three separate computer systems of other individuals at Tesla so that the data would be exported even after he left the company and so that those individuals would be falsely implicated as guilty parties. It is my opinion, BeauHd, after reading many, but not all of your posts on this site pertaining to Tesal/Elon Musk, is that you never miss an opportunity to cast aspersions on Mr. Musk, Tesla, or SpaceX. - So what is it. Is using "alleged", which is factually incorrect, just an oversight on your part, in the face of the admissions by Mr. Tripp, or do you think there are real reasons to doubt that Mr. Tripp has admitted anything . if so, what are your doubts based on. Do you believe Mr. Musk is hatching a plot to divert attention from the model 3 production problems widely reported and speculated on by "the usual list" of what passes for journalists these days. And how bout those shadowy others, who received the data that Mr. Tripp has admitted he stole from Tesla..
No reason to speculate on that, when every day there's a new story of a Tesla car catching fire or crashing while on auto-whatever, or a fire on the production line or quality control problems. I'm not saying none of these things have happened. However, after years of producing some 300,000 electric cars, why now, when Tesla is on the verge of success in the - Best Made in America Tradition - are these things all over the news. Oh yeah. That's right. Anyone who knows anything about markets and finance (and who received 16 Trillion dollars from the American people in 2008, because of their great market wisdom) - knows. You can't make anything in America any more. Electric cars. File that away with airplanes and cold fusion and other wild speculation by impractical dreamers. Why if there were anything like mass produced electric cars, what would happen to all those internal combustion engine factories at those places where they know how to make things that are really important, like - spreadsheets and 10k reports.
Could there be some connection to the production problems at Tesla and those who have received - who knows what - from - who knows how many people inside Tesla - who were paid to work at Tesla, but not for the work, such as it may have been, they did while employed there.
That's the real story. A story worth speculating on, for what it would reveal about those who are paid to sprinkle radioactive free market pixie dust on any signs of real competition developing.
