If you're going to click the link expecting some interesting information about Cybertruck, don't bother. This is just article about how sketchy we already know Tesla autonomous systems can be, with a clickbait headline.

Boy, you’re not kidding. Here, I’ll save everyone the time and paste the singular relevant paragraph:

Half-hidden within the rush of revelations is a teaser for a secret report on Tesla’s long-awaited “Cybertruck,” a weirdly angular pickup truck announced in 2019. It’s unlikely to be good news.

Seriously, that’s it. I did the scrolling so that you don’t have to.

Terrible article. Embarrassing. Referring to Volkswagen scandal as “downplaying its environmental impact.”

Wired and other legacy media outlets need native advertising to stay afloat in a landscape that has completely shifted. Thus, it wouldn't surprise me the least to find out another auto maker paid for this, or at least paid to paint a very specific narrative.

Wired.com ran the first ever banner ad. True fact.

Was it the one where there was a fist punching a cloud? How very ironic if so

That's a really good euphemism.

Jeffrey Dahmer explored various fad diets popular in niche historical communities.

Terrible by what metric? I'm sure it's generated many ad views.

I don't think it's shocking that Cybertruck has problems, anyone with eyes and access to the internet knew that from the moment the window broke.

hyping on hating Musk, what else is new
