A minor note: the author refers to "Volkswagen corruption". I have not seen the company's actions called corruption elsewhere, nor was it justified in the provided link.
Volkswagen deliberately subverted regulations on emissions control. It would have been corruption if they also bribed officials to get away with it.
I'm not attempting to defend Volkswagen in any way, but the phrase is sensationalist and strictly incorrect, even if only very slightly so. This is interesting given the overall point of the article.
