Shocking counter reaction: Mark Rober has misled millions of financial profits

Mark Rober, the beloved Youtuber and former NASA engineer, faces an intensive counter reaction on his latest video. Can you deceive a self -driving car? The experiment that Tesla's autopilot adapts against a vehicle equipped from Lidar in extreme obstacle tests is accused of making the viewers misleading. Critics argue that Rober has never tested the complete self-driving mode of Tesla-Nur Autopilot, which is not designed for full autonomy.

It is even more suspicious that some spectators of eagle eyes claim that Rober could have deactivated the autopilot shortly before the impact, which looks even worse to the performance of Tesla. While the controversy unfolds, the fans are questioned whether the experiment was a fair test or a deliberate hit.

Things get even darker when financial motives come into play. According to online speculations, Rober was not able to disclose a suspected business relationship to a Lidar company, which may be violating transparency guidelines. This timing is crucial – after Rober's video has become viral, the Tesla share has dropped by 5%, while Lidar Company Luminar's shares rose by 27%.

With Elon Musk's long-standing opposition to lidar technology and Tesla's vision-based autonomy, many is only a scientific experiment or something calculated?
