The owners of Telsa cars have had their personal data leaked. 404 Media is reporting that a website called DOGEQWEST which is a direct shot at Elon Musk’s involvement in the activities of the Trump Administration has posted what it claims to be a searchable map of the names, addresses and other personally identifiable information of every Tesla owner in the USA. And to make things even more interesting, if you want to call it that, the only way to get your name removed is to prove to the website’s operators that you’ve sold your Tesla.
Now it isn’t clear how accurate this data is, or how this data was obtained. But 404 Media has confirmed that at least some of the data is accurate. On top of that, while the website doesn’t openly advocate violence, the cursor for the website is a Molotov cocktail and it says stuff like this:
Under a heading that reads “Is DOGEQUEST a protest platform?” the website says “If you’re on the hunt for a Tesla to unleash your artistic flair with a spray can, just step outside—no map needed! At DOGEQUEST, we believe in empowering creative expressions of protest that you can execute from the comfort of your own home.”
So clearly this site is meant to twist the screws on Elon by making the brand so toxic that people avoid it and Elon loses money. The thing is that if someone wants to target Elon because they don’t like him or his political views, then they should target Elon and leave Tesla owners out of this. There’s no way that posting personally identifiable information about Tesla owners for any random human that wants to make a political point can be considered to be acceptable. Thus I really hope either the people who run this site have a change of heart (unlikely I know), or they get a visit from a three letter agency. Because this isn’t cool at all.
