Is that true for cars made for markets that are not Germany? It's not that German car makers are inherently more ethical so I'd assume they do whatever they can

Is that true for cars made for markets that are not Germany? It's not that German car makers are inherently more ethical so I'd assume they do whatever they can get away with in whatever jurisdictions they sell their cars.
- dgellow 4y agoYeah, German car manufacturers aren’t known for their great sense of ethics: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volkswagen_emissions_scandal https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volkswagen_emissions_scandal
- rsynnott 4y agoThe issue with Tesla is _presumably_ not that they decided to make this available to employees out of sheer evil, but that they made it unavailable through negligence or incompetence. If they went into it thinking “this has to comply with (the rather strict German interpretation of) the GDPR”, this would be less likely to happen.
