  In any sane world that would be a trivial lawsuit to win

  Don’t feel bad for dumbasses who bought Nazi cars.

  Totally reasonable. I wish every electronic device would brick itself if it heard you talking shit about it. People are too rude to toasters.

      HP are already doing that with the policy on bootleg ink and toner.

      I’m pretty sure my older hp printer heard me talking vaguely about my 3d printer that was being a pain and went on strike. “Printing Head not found”

    Rude? No, no no, that’s a misunderstand. It’s call percussion maintenance SLAP

  Definitely real and not a marketing stunt.

  Y’all believe some wild shit.

  I’m sure he’s REAL motivated to clean up a song in order to use a vehicle that was bad enough to warrant a dis track.

    I’m not going to listen to it but apparently it isn’t a dis track, it is a load of wank about how rich he is that he can afford a Cybertruck.

    Apparently the author also declined to listen to it, but they are a Journalist; it is their job to listen to it.

      This is vital context. They didn't disable his truck because he talked trash about it. He loves his Cybertruck. They disabled it because he's black and dances around like a black person while he's talking about it, and that means he's not welcome at the party. If he was Tim Pool making a song about how much he loves his Cybertruck they'd have invited him to the next event to put it on stage.

  It’s like these companies never remember the Streisand effect. I didn’t’t know who this rapper was before this, but I do now. Gonna go listen to this song too.

    He should make another song where he tells the story, bashes the company and Elon, and showcase the truck being destroyed to bits!

  If you hate Teslas that much, why do you own one?

    It was praising the cyberfuck

  This is purely nominative fair use.

    If it was just plain old trademark/copyright law, you’d be right.

    It sounds like Tesla are basically saying that you signed an NDA/non-disparagement clause when you bought the vehicle, and therefore it’s a contract dispute.

    Doh.

      While not a “review” in the traditional sense, I hope it would fall under the CRFA anyway.

      ftc.gov/…/consumer-review-fairness-act-what-busin…

      The Consumer Review Fairness Act makes it illegal for companies to include standardized provisions that threaten or penalize people for posting honest reviews.

      They can’t necessarily use a “contract” as a defense.
