Well, this is going to get interesting.
Blaming the customer might have worked for regular AutoPilot because of that legal footnote that AutoPilot-the-product is it not intended to be used as autopilot-the-concept, but good luck blaming the customer for a car that was in "full autonomy" mode.
Edit: the timing of this announcement is so very premature, I believe there might be another motive to it. Perhaps Tesla wants to negotiate from a stronger position in the next financing round.
