Decision made in order for factory in Texas to be used for Cybercab, the carmaker's self-driving taxi Elon Musk has announced that Tesla will wind down production of its Cybertruck, marking the end of a failed effort to take a chunk of the lucrative market for pickups in the US. The billionaire chief executive said production of the car would stop in about the middle of next year at the company's factory in Texas in order to use the plant for the Cybercab, its self-driving taxi.

The Capytistas, a secretive group claiming more than $1.2 million in backing, started with Elon Musk and Tesla's board. Members argue that those who buy political power deserve the scrutiny they'll impose. An underground activist group says it plans to start openly doxing billionaires as part of a phased campaign against what it calls the American oligarchy--beginning this month with a release that maps the homes of Elon Musk, his brother Kimbal, and Tesla's board, alongside investors and suppliers that keep the corporation afloat. Two of its members, interviewed by WIRED on the condition of anonymity, say they spent the past year constructing dossiers on billionaires--and one trillionaire--and the people they consider their top lieutenants, using nearly every method available to a private investigator, and some that are not. The pair say the group is international and includes grassroots activists, researchers, journalists, and artists, including some who received top honors in print, television, and digital media in their former careers.

The base model--without thrusters or the flight system--will likely cost several times that amount to buy. "I'm going to do everything in my power to get the flying one," says one customer. In mid-October, CEO Elon Musk sort of made good on a long-standing promise: Tesla's new second-gen Roadster flew through the air . Technically, the vehicle used compressed air to "thrust" itself --the "flying" lasted mere seconds, and the system takes six to seven hours to refill . Never mind, though--some buyers were eager to unsheath their credit cards to reserve one of the cars.
