My favorite was the alleged sighting of "Wet Nellie" (modified Lotus from Bond movie that Musk bought years ago) in video footage sent to Tesla's servers by one of their cars - likely, when it was parked. They have been quite lax in multiple ways at times with various practices.
Definitely speaks to company culture that not only did all sorts of images & video get recorded on private property and sent to Tesla (at highly questionable times given the claimed reasons for the sending of images / video), these materials were then casually handled up and down the chain. Significant disregard to any real access control, training, rules, etc. - employees sharing, commenting, and making memes off of everything.

(Not the only article or set of sources, of course. I'd certainly still classify this as alleged, but, have encountered enough such reports and heard enough stories from various people to consider this likely largely accurate. My opinion, though.)
- yellow_lead 3y agoYep, it's indicative of the culture for sure. If this sort of thing is still happening years after the whole "SSH into moving cars" thing, I can't expect it to improve.
