The FBI has initiated investigations into a series of attacks targeting Tesla facilities, including dealerships and charging stations, classifying these incidents as acts of domestic terrorism. The attacks involve Molotov cocktails and anti-Trump graffiti, coinciding with the "Tesla Takedown" protests against Elon Musk's influence in Washington. While these protests have been largely peaceful, the violent acts have raised concerns about potential broad surveillance of protesters. The domestic terrorism designation grants law enforcement expanded powers under the Patriot Act and could allow Tesla executives access to sensitive information. Historically, such investigations have led to collaborations between companies and the FBI, sometimes resulting in the sharing of privileged information. Critics worry that this approach may lead to the targeting of activists and non-violent protesters. Why the "domestic terrorism" designation for a fascist billionaire's car company and not a "domestic terrorism" designation for all the school shooters the USA is plagued with?! Protect schools not car dealerships.
