Anyone well versed in how much corporate spying goes on in the auto industry? I guess I'm imagining scenarios where companies outright bribe high level execs at other companies to give up future development plans, trade secrets etc.
BTW the BMW in the title was a random example - substitute any other carmaker as well.
I got to thinking about this issue because sometimes I'm surprised there are not more leaks than there already are in the tech industry. For example - with the intense speculation on Model 3's control system I'm a bit surprised no concrete info has leaked at all as to what Elon meant by "spaceship controls." All we have at this point are publicly available clues, like Elon's tweets, company hires, etc.
