Gravitas: Is China's Communist Party afraid of Tesla cars?

Ahead of its annual summer retreat, China's Communist Party has banned Tesla cars from entering the Beidaihe district for 2 months.
Beijing had rolled out the red carpet for Tesla in 2019.
But it is now considered a national security risk.
Palki Sharma tells you why.

The Tesla saga is going to be interesting :)

[robertkim]

This is hilarious
The same country saying how huawei is safe and America is over reacting is now saying the same exact thing about Tesla

[frantzcuban]

Americans: Elon is a Chinese spy.
Chinese: Elon is an American spy.
Elon: Guys calm down. I'm just a crazy genius.

[premkumarparikarath]

So, Elan must be feeling the heat. One wrong move, he would be behind the bars.

Thumbnail going east while news going west ! 😛

[darnneljones]

WION might want to change their thumbnail 😂

[RougeLex]

This not what the TITLE SAYS this is not about Turkey.

[UMS]

With the level to which technology has advanced, this will be a concern for many countries.

[chestersabajo]

The US did the same with Huawei for the same security reasons .the irony

[DonatellaNellieFatou]

Reverse engineering, R&D completed .Good bye Tesla 😂. They even have ELong Ma to replace Elon Musk

[saptarshisaha]

What an the thieves r anxious of being theft 🤣🤣🤣

[Akeem_]

Put your biases towards china aside. Tesla cars collect alot of data daily so they're smart for implementing this

[martinsaunders]

With starlink hooked up to them Chinese can be monitored in real-time. Welcome to a better version of your nightmares.

[marcusaureliusanonymous]

And we thought Musk was a Chinese spy 🤣🤣

[srinivaskamineni]

Personally I appreciate, what USA did with Huawei!!! Scope would be there on every corner.

[TheLocalChurchExperience]

I knew this will happen. More to come. Like Russia, China has no pure business interests, every business interest is a geopolitical tool. Elon Musk has been very naive.

[Real_OSHA_Unsafety_Engineer]

American Surveillance phones and cctvs also has that function 10 years ago.
Camera for identity tracking, simcard tracking, audio hijacking was common in CIA and FBI which is why they are capable of tracking "criminals" for the last decade, the problem is US' internet is too open compared to chinese' Great Firewall which made US government and servers keeps getting data breaches that even Julian Assange got access to.

[binduramesh]

India also should not allow Tesla to operate. This will help Indian EV manufacturers. Elon want to sell cars manufactured in China factory.

[jacobearhart]

I mean we banned their phones for the same reason

[herozero]

Why not send Tesla to India or other southeast Asian countries? There are more destinations for manufacturing these days. With everything happening, doesn't it make sense to pull out of china?
