The American businessman Dan O'Dowd threw crazy sums on Sunday last week after a warning against Tesla.
In prime time on American television – namely during the Super Bowl final – Dan O'Dowd was sent an advertisement in which he warns against Tesla's popular equipment – "Autopilot".
CNN writes that.

It is not the first time that Dan O'Dowd has used the Super Bowl as a starting point to warn against Tesla. He did exactly the same during the telecast of the final last year.
