No it isn't. Apple LENT them a unit, and they tore it down. If I lend you a lawnmower, and with out my permission (unauthorised) you pull it apart, then I'm going to punish you too.
Even better, if I lent you my trade secret patented lawn mover v. 3.0 (TM) then you know better than to tell the world how I designed and built it, Jackass.
NDA applies, because I don't want to give my knockoff copycats a head start to market.

One litigator, misty eyed, related the personal side to this tragedy, "We had just ordered our (sniff) little Bernard and his sister Berkley their own matching custom ostrich-leather maid saddles... but now all our plans, even summering in the Maldives, everything is on hold....All this 'drop the litigation' talk is madness I tell you,Madness!"
Yes, we are ALL paying for it too. Through our taxes with all the massive subsidies. The only one making out in this deal is Elon Musk who just keeps getting richer.
Would you, Mr. Coward, change your opinion if you found out that the amount of the Federal subsidy is quickly offset by the taxes on just one new US factory worker job created by Tesla?
In other words she is so full of crap. Maybe the kids that are in the program are better than other kids because of things like their parents care enough to insure the kid is doing their homework, is responsible etc.
I think that "ensure" might be the word you meant to use.
Ssshhh. Don't make fun of the non-gifted, I mean, he's like sitting right there.
They just can't win with you guys. Here is a US carmaker, hiring US manufacturing workers, and hiring US factory builders, and US factory worker insurance agents, and US building maintenance workers and US building construction workers... And US robot installers, and US salespeople and US car insurance people and US SuperCharger construction workers and US auto engineers and US marketing workers and on and on.
All these non-rich, non-douche workers are taking piles of money away from the "douche"-class. Exactly what will it take to make you happy? You should wish the cars were selling out at 10X the price, to take 10X as much of the cash away from the evil "douche"-class buyers.
They're a California company. Try finding a house for $132K just about *anywhere* in California, let alone greater LA or SF. Heck, finding a house in many parts of Silicon Valley for $1.32 million is tough.
Foreigners taking all the good American jobs. We used to dominate the Organized Crime sector of the economy, but now the real crime innovations aren't coming from the New York regional crime labs of the old days (AKA "Sicilian Valley").
Give a man an Internet, he'll watch porn all day and forget to eat. Teach a man to Internet, and he'll start setting up porn sites with AdSense and eat for a lifetime.
"The four reactors being built in Georgia and South Carolina were supposed to demonstrate that new construction techniques and a new licensing process had finally brought nuclear plant cost overruns and construction delays under control, but they have shown the reverse. Construction of the fifth new US reactor, Watts Bar Unit 2 in Tennessee, began in 1973."
Now begins the testing of all vehicles' claims; it makes you wonder what will be dug up in the next few months. Odds of this being isolated to VW, low.

Been watching Secretary again? And again?
Well, no. But now I'm, um... curious? I think.
Tell me, is there lots and lots of dirty lawyer shaming?
The footnote explains that in order to get kids to eat Brussels Sprouts, they had to be paired with waterboarding.

Lucky you, they sell that solution. Wire up as many PowerWalls as you need for 90kWh of adult toy enjoyment.

Positive cabin pressure. So you can drive it under water right?
Well, one time. Sure.
What if the bioweapon is released from within the vehicle... from say, a butt?
Quick -- Somebody tweet Elon about the potential Weapons Grade Chipotle threat vector.

OK, so they're in Sherman Oaks, but that is in California.
When they finally start calling us "targets" instead of "customers."
... to see ever more creepy, hyper-personalized ads?
"Thank you for calling "target services" how may I help you
aren't they used to pay more anyways?
Oh, they're used all right.

We've lost our edge.
The concept of a "supermoon" was invented by an astrologer
The word was coined by an astrologer, but no-one invents astronomical events.
Every-one knows some-one who invented a coined spelling though :-)

Siri will understand me?
No silly optimist. Siri will be able to misunderstand you 50 -100X faster.

Found no mention of terms "thorium" or "molten salt reactor". Pity.
