Elon Musk, the chief executive of the US electric carmaker Tesla, says his firm would be "shut down" if its vehicles were used for spying on China.
On Saturday, Mr Musk said if a business did engage in spying on a foreign government, "the negative effects for that company would be extremely bad". There has long been unease about the presence of big American companies operating in China and vice versa. He sought to downplay concerns over companies sharing sensitive data with their home governments, referencing the case of the Chinese-owned video platform TikTok.over concerns that users' data could be handed over to the Chinese government.

It what world would someone like him say ' Yes, our cars are spying on Chinese people !' . What a breaking news would that be😅
I believe it, Elon never lies
It was that giant microphone in the middle of the roof that made them suspicious, wasn't it? 🎙️
the spy who drove me
Are they spying on how good they drive?
I wonder how some from the FSD beta In America got took off the program then when Tesla found they wasn’t paying enough attention at the road ,yep you guessed it the built interior Cam .
Good Elon spy on China, they gave us the virus.
mariakatsme Why not spying China. Chinese try to control nations, earth soil, space. Good job Musk.
(3) I would just like to add that although Elon Musk may look like a Cheshire Cat that just swallowed a Cheshire Cat, that doesn't make him technically guilty of anything other than potentially swallowing said Cheshire Cat (and who knows a 5g Tesla/Starlink next-gen spy guy...)
(2) Now, if Tesla were a 5g telephone / infrastructure provider then maybe someone's ears should prick up...and perhaps even 'M' and 'Q' might step in...
Tesla elonmusk There are simply too many envious eyes in China (and elsewhere) on Tesla cars as opposed to Tesla having 'eyes' on China. BTW, clearly Starlink would pose a more credible threat'. That is if it were a Bond movie. 'Musk. Elon Musk' doesn't quite have the same ring
Just USA fake news, ignore it.
Huawei - payback
Oh grow the fuck up.
Do you own bitcoin and want to make incredible profits from it? Don’t just have your bitcoin laying around when you can be earning up to $10,700 on weekly basis by investing it. Ask me How!!! Minimum investment of $500 earn $5,500 in 5trading days. DM
Of course HE would deny :) I'm thinking from his business perspective of course lol
what’s there to spy on? China is a terrible communist country that lies, cheats, kills and unleashed deadly viruses upon the world. if you don’t know this by now and support China in anyway, you’re living under a rock and part of the problem.

Sky net.
$tsla A total coincidence that this distraction nonsense came out exactly this weekend:
If notorious liar elonmusk denies, then it’s probably true!
eternal life Jesus tesla cars jelly bean .....
Exactly what someone spying would say.
Now that he's officially denied it means there some truth in it
Better pull production out of China elonmusk or else they will steal your technology quicker than a Tesla goes 0-60.
言うまでもない。まあ嫌がらせだわな。
不知道为什么就很好笑
There is no technology, app, website, phone that dont spy. They call it monitoring or logs
Sounds Like Tesla has gone all Knight Ryder
So what if he is.. makes a change.. It's usually that shower committing industrial espionage against everybody else's companies.. cause they've about as much imagination as a pack of.. well Chinese people.
Do Chinese prefer Boxers or Briefs, ask $tsla?
Hmm..... 🤔
But huawei is spying on US?
Has no one told elonmusk that denying something in 2021 means it MUST be true
However he’s a tosser so could lie
Interesting, when the hunter become the hunted . What an irony $tsla
They are used to spy fucking everywhere 🤗
Denies Lol
Worst cars I’ve ever driven. Look like blobs.
Don't pay any attention to the CEO of an organisation specialising in forcing his employees to labour in dangerous conditions
Click bait. Poor BBC journalism.
I hope they are...bit of karma against the Chinese
Narrator: They are.
Is this the model he sent to China with a built in computer? 🤔
Can we use them for spying in America? Because we would all like to know if any Tesla picked up additional data on the pipe bomber in Washington DC.
China who spies and steals from any country it wants is accusing someone of spying : 🥱🤮💯
of course not, the NSA just setup chips in all routers sold outside the US, are we surprised if so?
What would you expect him to say?
China today , our countries yesterday .
Wish they were
ajayjuneja can a vehicle such as the Tesla get wired to spy on us with remote controls?
