Teslarati : "California passes law banning Tesla from calling software FSD"

That’s a 2 1/2 year old article. IIRC, Tesla won the case on appeal and is allowed to use the wording in the objecting complaint, “full potential for autonomous driving” and “Autopilot inclusive” in its German advertising materials. Germany’s Federal Court of Justice threw out the complaint against Tesla’s marketing terms.

Wettbewerbszentrale, the group that filed the complaint, is sponsored by the German auto industry. What a surprise.

The reason for all this is the pathetic way they wrote SEA Levels.

The gap between L2 and L3 is so large that companies can't differentiate themselves properly - so they resort to either gimmicks (<37mph on freeway "L3") or use trade markable but generic sounding phrases.
