Efter vår tidigare artikel där vi berättade om en anställd som misstänkts ha saboterat Tesla Model 3’s produktionslinje, kommer nu en stämning mot, vad som misstänks vara samma anställd. Enligt Elon Musk på Twitter misstänks det även finnas fler personer som har utfört sabotage hos Tesla.
There is more, but the actions of a few bad apples will not stop Tesla from reaching its goals. With 40,000 people, the worst 1 in 1000 will have issues. That’s still ~40 people.

Enligt stämningsansökan har sabotören varit anställd som processingenjör, och bland annat exporterat flera gigabyte data från Tesla’s system tillverkningssystem för Model 3.
Tesla has only begun to understand the full scope of Tripp’s illegal activity, but he has thus far admitted to writing software that hacked Tesla’s manufacturing operating system (“MOS”) and to transferring several gigabytes of Tesla data to outside entities. This includes dozens of confidential photographs and a video of Tesla’s manufacturing systems.
Beyond the misconduct to which Tripp admitted, he also wrote computer code to periodically export Tesla’s data off its network and into the hands of third parties. His hacking software was operating on three separate computer systems of other individuals at Tesla so that the data would be exported even after he left the company and so that those individuals would be falsely implicated as guilty parties.
Enligt stämningsansökan har även den anställde försökt rekrytera fler sabotörer inom Tesla.
