Sure, but reading the article, I think he might be knowledgeable enough. His mistake seems to have been blindly trusting the keys to the kingdom to an enthusiastic junior dev who’ll be very sorry if they nuke your system, but won’t think to do a damn thing to make sure it doesn’t happen in the first place…

I’m always a little shocked when people ask me if my product is on Amazon. I never even considered it because I’ve known what they are for so long; it’s been a bit of a wakeup call that most people still have no idea how fucking awful Amazon is. It sucks struggling with market visibility, selling just from my own website, but it beats the hell out of being bullied like this until I’m big enough to have my product stolen and copied by Amazon Basics.

Edit: Ah, sold privately, as in directly between individuals? I’m not sure about that, but they totally could. They can track the location of the car; if it starts getting parked at a different house regularly, for example, it’d be easy to tell it’d been sold.
I wanted a Tesla, until about seven or eight years ago when they switched off features after some dude bought his Tesla used, because only the original owner had paid for the features.
I knew this is what it would turn into. Fuck Tesla, and fuck Musk.

Edit: damn okay we’re done exploring and there’s nowhere left to colonise, my mistake for making a throwaway joke comment on such a serious topic 🙄
