On the other hand, Teslas cannot be driven remotely YET. Enabling this functionality is a core goal of the Tesla company. It remains to be seen if it is abused once it actually works. Ford has already applied for patents for cars that will self repossess for example.

Smart summon is a party trick that requires you to keep LOS to the vehicle the entire time. Like Full Self Driving it is not capable enough to be a problem yet.

If there is any good news about this it is that Full Self Driving appears to be a more difficult problem than Elon expected and they are struggling with it.
