imo if they don’t pay arbitration fees they should just get a default judgment against them

turns out a legal system based on “surely the two parties are acting in good faith to reach a mutually beneficial resolution” doesn’t work when one of the parties is Elon musk

Here's the most recent article I could find about the twitter severance lawsuits: https://archive.ph/h6tdL quote:Elon Musk is set to be deposed on Monday as the first arbitration hearings get underway involving thousands of former Twitter employees who say they were cheated out of severance pay when the billionaire bought the social media company in October 2022. if you enjoy elon being miserable, I imagine a 7 hour deposition will cheer you up

EDIT: nevermind you can see them in the pan shots later in the video, lol. Ultraklystron fucked around with this message at 19:26 on May 5, 2024 |

it's kinda funny when you think about how much they would need to reduce the cost of these things for them to be price competitive with a non-unionized auto worker then again, maybe they'll make up the difference on the labour suits they'll no longer have to fight

https://montreal.ctvnews.ca/montreal-man-on-the-hook-for-thousands-of-dollars-after-a-feature-on-his-tesla-caused-an-accident-1.6873830 Montreal man on the hook for thousands of dollars after a feature on his Tesla caused an accident George Ghazzoul is warning other drivers about the new Smart Summon feature on Tesla vehicles after his self-driving vehicle side-swiped another in a parking lot. When Ghazzoul bought a Tesla two years ago, he admitted it wasn't just the car's style that drove him; it was his love of technology. "Really, the selling point for me is the fact you get software updates and you always get new features on the car," he said. One of the latest downloadable features is Smart Summon. Like a valet service, it allows your car to come to you using your phone's GPS as its target destination. Ghazzoul decided to give it a try on April 10 when he was at the Fairview Shopping Centre parking lot. He used the feature to summon his parked car to pick him up. "I was within range when I activated it," he said. "I saw it moving initially, but then it took a sharp turn right instead of pulling out of the spot first." He tried to deactivate the feature, but the car didn't stop in time, so he ended up sideswiping the car parked beside it. The estimate for damage to both cars was several thousand dollars. Ghazzoul contacted Tesla about the accident. He said since it was their feature that malfunctioned, they should take responsibility, but he said they told him to contact his insurance company instead and that it was not their problem since he activated the feature. His insurance company, meanwhile, said he was fully at fault for the accident. What's worse for Ghazzoul is that he has since discovered that it wasn't even legal for him to use this driverless feature in public spaces in Quebec. "The rules were written before the technology existed," according to George Iny, the director of the Automobile Protection Association. He said that it's up to drivers to know the rules of the road, including the fact that parking lots are considered public spaces and, therefore, this technology should not be activated. He said, however, that it's also up to manufacturers to communicate this to their customers. "There is also the issue of the ethical and moral compass of a company that sells you a feature that is no good to you, where the car is going to be registered and doesn't bother to tell you don't use this," said Iny. He added that manufacturers could also not activate such features in markets where it would not be allowed. Tesla did not respond to CTV's request for an interview. Ghazzoul said that while he is relieved no one got hurt, he's now left to pay for the damages himself so that his insurance premiums don't go up. He says he feels disappointed with Tesla. "There's no information on where to use it and where not to use it," he said. He wants to warn other Tesla drivers not to make the same mistake he did, and check first before taking new features out for a test drive.
