Electrify America and other companies that build out ccs networks can definitely ban Tesla vehicles but currently am guessing they make more money from Teslas than all other EV’s combined even though Tesla superchargers are everywhere. That’s the reason they won’t block Tesla vehicles.

"Deceptively manipulated pornography used the likenesses of Twitch stars without their consent, and now they're calling for more to be done."
Umm, phrasing? Do they really want more?

It should be distasteful enough to threaten their career with the knowledge that it's fake.

Yeah, tesla superchargers are the gold standard, other networks don't hold a single candle to it at the moment. That's not even me being biased as its just facts unless you're in Europe.

Live fast, die young. Tay and Harambe were both put to rest in just a few months. This is probably how the Brits felt about Diana.
Goodnight sweet price.

Wait, they are stopping production but no recall for the trucks already on the road? How does that work?

No kidding. I guess Hyundai and Kia are big enough advertisers that they decided to softball it.

What Republicans want to happen: social media websites admit they did a no-no by banning Trump & agree to artificially promote right-wing views in exchange for not being regulated under Section 230.
What will happen: Republicans will try to gut Section 230 regardless, and social media companies will hedge themselves by formally becoming Publishers. Republicans will then be mass culled from all major websites, Section 230 won't apply, and most of the web will move to paid subscriptions. Most people will pay $2 to use Google Image Search or $10 to use Facebook, especially if all Publishers agree on a single Interoperable credentials format. Musk has already done them a favor by breaking the seal on this with paid Twitter subscriptions and people pay for Amazon Prime.

Why wouldn't there be? There's a charge for tesla users. Do you think the energy is free?

> Last year's reliability statistics where pretty bad for all but Tesla.
Okay? Certainly a lot of chargers are broken. It's disgusting. Not sure how that to what you said about testing with different cars.
Do note that report includes AC charging, not just DC. And AC charging is often even less reliable than DC simply because there are a lot of AC chargers that are unmaintained. They were put in on a tax credit and even the nominal operator doesn't care if they continue to work.
https://www.kbb.com/car-news/j-d-power-electric-car-charging-getting-worse/
Also note some of the failures are due to billing issues. Something which hopefully will get better as plug-n-charge rolls out. Then again, maybe that's being too hopeful.
Additionally the figures will get better as there are a larger number of people familiar with how to charge an EV. You have a lot of people who are trying it for their first time and they don't know the ins and outs. You can say they shouldn't have to, but in practice they do. And they will over time.
> I have never had a bad experience with the charging port on my Bolt EUV. Maybe the Bolts had an issue.
You shouldn't with that car. That's the 2nd gen. Neither the EUV or 2nd gen EV should have that particular issue.
I've had the problem with my 1st gen Bolt. Have to learn to hold the handle up. It's a drag. But the car was made when a fast CCS charger was 50-60kW and now it's 350kW. The cables got bigger, the handles got bigger. Maybe they should have seen it coming, but they didn't.
> All of the announcements came out yesterday about the network opening officially. The Tesla website has been updated to include CCS compatible stations
I don't care what Tesla puts on their website. I don't trust them as far as I can throw them.
Right now Tesla is trying to brag about 12.5% by end of 2024.
Screw 'em. Take money away and lock them out of all CCS chargers. They're just buying time to extend their vendor lock in.
That link adds nothing at all to what you already said.
> Electrify America has worked with more multiple vendors and multiple models. Read the issue from the own words.
The statement given is about the Spark EV. Literally the 2nd ever type 1 CCS car and one that came out in 2013. I would not suggest that the levels of variance from the standard would be the same for cars released in 2022 as in 2013. Especially given CCS 2.0 didn't even come out until 2018.
> I am thinking Tesla will work with everyone due to having to validate fewer combinations of systems.
I don't understand what that means. And BTW, Tesla has at least 4 variants of their chargers. And that's before any one they would make with Type 1 (US) CCS.
And I certainly see less reason for Tesla to do a good job working with other cars when they are only doing it to get a handout. They are in it for the handout, not the money made from charging other cars. I expect malicious compliance. It's what they are doing with their driver assist ("autopilot") and advanced driver assist rollout ("FSD"). It's what they did with the requirement for their cars to make noise at low speeds. It's what Musk plans for wing mirrors on the new Roadster (he said so publicly). It's what I expect from them here too. They're that kind of company.

The reason this is important is because tesla has a gigantic charging network and this will spur ev adoption.
