This has become my mantra for many domains, and I'm glad we're still on a true "do no evil" stance by Musk. Something tells me he just won't fall for the corporate greed that killed the Google (or should I say Larry-Sergei) spirit and so many others forever. Ford, for instance, that man's autobiography was a rare treat to read (fun fact: socialistic ideas inside, lol, if you can believe that, which you should because he framed it in private ownership, no State/gov shenanigans, and tripled his own employees wage in a decade).
I, for one, rejoice that Ford (and hopefully many others) move in the right direction.
Now, if we could talk about charging standards and the infrastructure thereof, worldwide... Need we literally reivent the power outlet?? Can states/govs actually do their work and enforce decent (compatible, safe, neutral) standards once in a while?
