> Green called it “Elon Mode” because the name in the software suggested it was meant for “executive testing.” https://electrek.co/2023/08/30/tesla-autopilots-

  So it's a nothingaburger? 1. the "elon mode" name came from some random person, not from tesla itself 2. it requires root access to enable. At which point you can also conceivably patch the software to remove the check entirely. In other words "if you have full control of the software, you can change the software so it doesn't nag you. also we're calling this elon mode".

  It's interesting that they don't share what the name in the software of this is, but GP's point appears to be that "Elon mode" is editorializing that and this seems supported by the fact that they're not giving you the opportunity to form one's own opinion on this by giving out the actual name of it.
