Tesla has consistently exaggerated the driving range of its electric vehicles, reportedly leading car owners to think something was broken when actual driving range was much lower than advertised. When these owners scheduled service appointments to fix the problem, Tesla canceled the appointments because there was no way to improve the actual distance Tesla cars could drive between charges, according to an investigation by Reuters.

  • Meta has started blocking news content for some Canadians on its Facebook and Instagram platforms in response to a proposed online news bill by the Liberal government.

  • The blocking of news content is affecting some French-language media organizations, smaller local media outlets, and even larger Quebec newspapers.

  • News Media Canada's president claims that this blocking is an abuse of Meta's dominant position and sets the stage for hostile foreign actors to spread misinformation and disinformation, thereby weakening its own shareholder value, social cohesion, and democratic ideals.
