The internet was recently shaken by the emergence of DogeQuest, a website that claimed to expose the identities of Tesla owners and service centers across various states. The site, which many have compared to something out of Black Mirror, presented itself as an interactive map, seemingly encouraging targeted actions against Tesla owners and facilities.
However, a closer look reveals that DogeQuest is incomplete, unreliable, and experiencing frequent downtime. The accuracy of its data is questionable, raising concerns about the validity of the information and the intent behind its creation.
Tesla is not an exclusive or rare brand—in many cities, it’s common to see multiple Teslas within minutes of walking or driving. The idea that a website needs to “reveal” Tesla locations is flawed because:
✅ Supercharger and service center locations are already public – Tesla lists them on its website, Google Maps, and other platforms.
✅ EVs are mainstream – The Model 3 and Model Y are among the best-selling vehicles in the U.S., making Tesla ownership hardly a secret.
✅ The data is incomplete – Many users report missing or outdated listings, making the site more of a haphazard collection of names than a reliable database.
For example, in Central Ohio, the site lists only six Tesla owners—a laughably low number given the actual presence of Tesla vehicles in the area. It also omits well-known Supercharger locations, some of which have been operational for years.
While privacy concerns are valid, this site doesn’t add any real risk that wasn’t already there. If someone wanted to target Tesla owners, they wouldn’t need an unreliable database—they could simply walk outside. The real danger comes from sensationalism, which could encourage bad actors to take things further.
DogeQuest claims to expose Tesla owners, but in reality, it’s an incomplete, glitchy, and questionable website that doesn’t provide anything that isn’t already publicly available. If the goal was to cause fear, it’s failing—most Tesla owners can rest easy knowing this data is unreliable and largely meaningless.
As for those truly concerned about privacy, the real conversation should be about data security and how much personal information is publicly accessible online—not just for Tesla owners, but for everyone.
