At this point it looks like Musk is somewhat paranoid about his life, which reminds me of dictators being paranoid about their life. That's not very surprising given that Musk is far from being honest to consumers. For instance, Tesla was found to be deactivating the autopilot mode at the second before a crash [1], to make their system look safer than it is in reality.

This is a whole new level of mental gymnastics to somehow shoe-horn your PDF into a conversation about Twitter.

1. You have no idea what the intention is behind an alleged disabling. There are a thousand perfectly rational reasons why you'd want to turn off self driving when automated emergency braking has been enabled. Autopilot in general is designed around the premise of disabling during non-normal events. A pending crash is definitely one of these.

2. There is pretty extensive rebuttals so the most notable example used in your PDF, including that the car in question didn't even have have FSD purchased and that even if autopiloted was purchased, standard Autopilot would require lane lines to turn on, which this street did not have.

A father had the vehicle his child was in attacked. He's upset and afraid of the welfare of his family, and you decide to compare this behavior to that of a dictator? Cool

I mean the PDF is about a series of cars. I'm guessing you didn't read the 4 pages.

Given that Tesla is not anywhere close to level 5 self driving it's definitely expected for the self driving features to disable themselves prior to a crash as Human intervention was required (this is by definition, a crash occurred).

Penalty should fit the crime. If you jaywalk across the street I shouldn't be able to arrest a random person because of it. Similarly, if somebody attacks a vehicle located away from an airport on a day that a twitter account doesn't post a message you shouldn't claim that twitter account's (lack of) posting is responsible.
