Chechen warlord Ramzan Kadyrov says Elon Musk remotely broke his Cybertruck, Tesla CEO denies this with an emphatic ‘No’ In this article, we will explore the controversy and provide more details about the allegations, backstory, and possible ramifications of the ongoing crisismetlyphicon Credit: Pixabay Luckily for MCPA users out there or anyone who has used Team Xecuter’s mod chip products have found themselves in trouble.
Kadyrov’s Warlord Cybertruck
Chechnya president Ramzan Kadyrov has grabbed a lot of the attention for his shiny Cybertruck — claiming it was gifted to him by none other than Elon Musk. Yet the Tesla CEO has described this idea as “retarded” and refuted these claims in no uncertain terms.
However, the Cybertruck Kadyrov is trolling with is not just any electric pickup. The warlord turned it into a ‘technical’ – a type of assault vehicle heavily armed, often deployed in military purpose. Basiclaly, DRIVE has reimagined the EV pickup as a ‘Mad Max’-style war machine complete with an enormous machine gun and weapons slings of Kadyrov’s famous bandoliers.
Kadyrov even claimed the Cybertruck has been ‘fighting well in combat’ on the frontlines of the Ukraine war. The statement further escalated the controversy as employing such a cutting-edge vehicle in a military conflict is rightfully considered unethical and illegal.
Musk’s claims of remote shutdowns
The most recent chapter in this tale saw Kadyrov assert that Elon Musk had ‘disabled’ his Cybertruck remotely. In the Telegram, the Chechen leader wrote that Musk had made this move, which he called “not good to do”.
Kadyrov said that Musk ‘made expensive gifts from the heart and then remotely turns them off,’ and this, according to him, is ‘not manly止 The warlord even insisted that he had to ‘tow the iron horse’ after the supposed remote shutdown.
Musk has not responded to these claims. Considering how he shrugged off the allegation that he gave Kadyrov a Cybertruck, it’s not very likely that he would actually confess to killing the car.
Kadyrov has even gone so far as to say that his other Cybertrucks ‘remote shutdown did not impact:’ they also are all still working correctly, without failure. That contradiction further confuses the issue and casts doubt on the credibility of the warlord’s assertion.
Conclusion
Elon Musk’s rumors, who turned off Ramzan Kadyrov from Cybertruck, caused a lot of controversy. Although the warlord’s claim to have been given a gift by the Tesla CEO and that his car had then been disabled were both highly dubious, there are more expansive issues involved.
The incident itself illuminates the complicated nexus between technology, geopolitics and ethics. With more autonomous and remote control technology in modern vehicles, there is less likely to prevent malfunction from happening. And adds even more layers to the issue of an electric pickup that’s packing all the latest high-tech gadgetry heading into a war zone, along with questions about how far future tech as this can become part of armed conflicts.
Whether or not Kadyrov’s claims are true is uncertain, but the larger conversations around responsible innovation and implementation will certainly persist.
