For starters, I have absolutely no problem with Tesla not letting us know when exactly our Model 3s are arriving, which ship, which day, which place, etc.
I much rather have Tesla focus on manufacturing and follow-up service than expensive pre-delivery communications - even 3.5 years into waiting for the car. If Tesla did provide early guidance on delivery dates and things change - as they invariably do, given the rate of change Tesla is experiencing - Tesla would get absolutely crucified for mis-communicating. This would then take up an inordinate amount of time and resources for Tesla to explain and rectify. But Tesla is damned if they do and damned if they do not.
I also 100% understand that Tesla has confidentiality agreements with various third-parties.
What I do not like is to see some of our activities being referred to as "stalking" when clearly they are not.
Stalking is a crime. It is illegal and is directed against people. Our actions are not directed against a person, but as enthusiastic Tesla customers, we are simply excited about the prospect of our cars arriving in Australia.
Yes, we are guessing, calculating based on publicly available information and I took some pictures of a ship that was entering Botany Bay (even flagged beforehand that I might be doing so). However, we might very well be way off with our guesses and perhaps people (especially at Tesla) wryly smile if they hear about what we discuss here.
Tesla has had its fair share of problems with real stalkers who have harassed their employees in search for information. For the record, I have not contacted Tesla in an attempt to glean any additional information.
I rather let them get on with their jobs. In no way do I want to interfere with their operations.
I can not for the life of me imagine that anything that has been done or has been discussed here on this thread would be reason for concern for Tesla or be perceived as "stalking". As a Tesla shareholder, I certainly would let the company know if anything illegal was happening.
