Tesla Sues Employee Alleged To Have Stolen Gigabytes of Data (arstechnica.com)
An anonymous reader quotes a report from Ars Technica: On Wednesday, Tesla sued a former employee who worked in its Gigafactory in Nevada, accusing him of stealing trade secrets. The lawsuit appears to be what CEO Elon Musk was referring to recently when he said that production of the Model 3 had been sabotaged. Musk said that there are "more" alleged saboteurs.
According to the civil complaint that was filed in federal court in Nevada, Tesla accused Martin Tripp, who began working in Sparks as a "process technician" in October 2017, of exporting company data: "Tesla has only begun to understand the full scope of Tripp's illegal activity, but he has thus far admitted to writing software that hacked Tesla's manufacturing operating system ("MOS") and to transferring several gigabytes of Tesla data to outside entities. This includes dozens of confidential photographs and a video of Tesla's manufacturing systems."

Another butthurt snowflake that is too stupid to realize Trump has nothing to do with this story.
I've heard so many retarded comments about the president, I'll vote for him if he runs again.
Reverse thinking making a GOP supporter out of a lifelong DEM.
Good job dipshit!
Have you seen how much Teslas cost? People who buy Teslas don't need govt hand-outs in order to afford a Tesla. The govt hand-out is welfare for the rich.
