>Their preference to shut down instead of receiving tens of billions of dollars would be a clear violation of a company’s fiduciary duty to shareholders for any normal company.

Would you argue for Tesla or Apple to sell to China? Do you think Musk would divest his China business? The parallels are almost identical

1. Tesla cars collect a huge amount of data.

2. Tesla is already banned from being driven by government officials.

3. Tesla has the best self driving algorithm

4. Chinese cars are already banned in the US

5. China is Tesla's second largest market

6. Tesla is the 3rd largest EV company in China

Would you be surprised if Elon decided to exist China instead of "receiving tens of billions of dollars" from China?
