Tesla says California’s Autopilot action violates its free speech rights::Elon’s biz claims 1st Amendment rights
“My right to free speech should extend to the right for my company to tell lies” is quite the statement, but let’s see how that goes.
It unfortunately worked well for FOX in court most of the time.
Isn’t this different because there are specifically truth-in-advertising laws? Not even a natural person is immune to truth-in-advertising laws. So it seems like Tesla is making a despirate move.
The last time it went to the Supreme Court, they couldn’t make up their minds. The current court would probably support it.
Unfortunately a corporation is a person. Worse yet is when they are a very rich person with actual product and capital.
