‘Dogequest,’ the recently launched website which is doxing some Tesla owners and members of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) and putting their personal information on a searchable map along with the location of Tesla charging stations, has published a version of its site on the dark web, potentially making it harder to shut down or investigate people who visit the site.
The news shows the escalating dynamic between authorities and those who are engaged in, or facilitating, targeting of Tesla facilities or vehicles. Last week 404 Media reported on how authorities investigated three alleged Tesla vandals. In a press release announcing charges against those suspects, Attorney General Pamela Bondi said “if you join this wave of domestic terrorism against Tesla properties, the Department of Justice will put you behind bars.”
The dark web site also comes with the backdrop of continued, mostly non-violent protests against Tesla, with this last weekend seeing more people gathering as part of the “Tesla Takedown” movement.
