The best part is that he wasn't even "banned by Tesla," he cancelled his order out of spite and so he could thrust himself into the spotlight again.

Honest to god, some people are insufferable blowhards. Sure, the event started late, sure Elon might have acknowledged that, but if he thinks that (a) any of this matters enough to write TWO articles about and (b) that anyone really cares what he thinks, he's deluding himself. Moreover, he just looks like a complete fool for posting this kind of garbage and expecting a positive response.

Wait, what? He as in the VC author cancelled his own order? Oh man. I read it as Elon instructed Tesla to cancel his order.

Edit: I think I was right. Here's the direct quote from first paragraph: I also hear that you are not comfortable having me own a Tesla car and have cancelled my order for a Tesla Model X. Maybe you read a phantom "I" between 'and' and 'have'?

Good catch, I think you are correct!
