    That’s not what Tesla is doing though, or the article is about…they (Tesla) are arguing that free speech should allow them to do false advertising of their product.

      should allow them to do false advertising

      The whole advertising industry would go down the drain if this were an actual right.

        It pretty much already is…it’s not a coincidence that people in marketing and sales are considered the least trustworthy.

          I would rather say there are many small (hopefully) violations that go unpunished.

          That’s something else than a right, and this subtle difference counts a lot.
