Federal and local law enforcement authorities are investigating what caused the Sunday night fire, which came after a series of attacks against Tesla in rebuke of its chief executive, Elon Musk.

Just remember: Tesla vehicles are surveillance machines, and the cops have access to facial recognition software, so I will not be surprised if whoever did this is caught.

    to the facial recognition; you need a library of past videos/photos to compare it to. You’re driver’s license is not enough on it’s own, and masks and such like, even ‘disruptive’ make up can render it useless.

      Be careful, it is getting better. I’ve found my own face on the Internet with just a single (unobscured) image upload. And that included finding faces in a different orientation. Masks probably still defeat it, but it’s not as data intensive as it once was.
