Drivers would have found the real problem behind Teslas accelerating on their own, Edge has an annoying tendency to automatically install a Chrome extension, we will have to spend billions of euros to protect the fiber network… welcome to the recap of the day before !
To end the week, we first talked about Tesla and its ghost acceleration problems, the cause of which is potentially very simple. There was also talk of Edge and a mysterious extension that installs automatically. Finally, the fiber is done again and again, this time for the network protection site which risks costing a hell of a lot of money.
Here’s why Tesla cars accelerate on their own
Tesla has long argued that the (many) drivers who suffered from the phantom acceleration problem were at fault in each case. Surprise, it seems that the problem lies elsewhere. Indeed, the problem could have its origin in a simple short circuit, which sends uncontrolled discharges to the vehicle controls.

Edge absolutely wants you to install this extension
Google Docs Offline: You may have seen this extension mysteriously appear since Microsoft Edge update 114.0.1823.58. You are not alone, as many users report seeing the extension on the browser without downloading it on their own. Fortunately, this does not cause any real concern on the operation of the software and can be easily removed. We explain how in the article below.

Maintaining the fiber network will be very, very expensive
Between 7 and 17 billion euros. Here is how much the fiber network protection projects could cost in France, whose infrastructures are increasingly vulnerable to changing climatic conditions. Several scenarios, more or less expensive, have been discussed to carry out this project. One thing is certain, however: it will not be the state that will pay the bill.
