Doxing website featuring Molotov cocktail cursor exposes personal info of Tesla owners: report

In addition to listing alleged Tesla owner data, the site reportedly maps out Tesla dealership locations and approximates the positions of the company’s Supercharger stations.

A website known as “Dogequest” has reportedly exposed the personal details of Tesla owners across the United States, displaying their names, addresses, and phone numbers on an interactive map, reports the New York Post.

The move appears to be an attempt to target Tesla drivers because of CEO Elon Musk’s connection to the Trump administration. 

The site also features an image of a Molotov cocktail as its cursor and includes exact locations of Tesla dealerships. According to a report from 404 Media, the website’s operators have stated they will only remove Tesla owners’ personal data if they provide proof that they have sold their vehicles.

News of the doxing website comes amid a rise in vandalism against Tesla drivers and dealerships, incidents that have increased following Musk’s leadership of the Trump administration’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE). The website also reportedly hosts personal information about DOGE employees, though the authenticity of this data has not been verified.

It remains unclear where the site obtained the information on Tesla owners. One section of the website addresses the question: “Is DOGEQUEST a protest platform?”

“If you’re on the hunt for a Tesla to unleash your artistic flair with a spray can, just step outside — no map needed! At DOGEQUEST, we believe in empowering creative expressions of protest that you can execute from the comfort of your own home,” the site states.

Under a section titled, “I want my information removed,” the website claims: “Absolutely! Just provide us with proof that you’ve sold your Tesla.”

The emergence of “Dogequest” follows a series of attacks on Tesla dealerships and vehicles. Earlier this month, a woman in Loveland, Colorado, was arrested for allegedly throwing an incendiary device at a Tesla dealership. In Oregon, two Tesla dealerships were recently targeted by gunfire, though no injuries were reported. Cybertruck owners have also reported experiencing harassment, including verbal insults and obscene gestures.

In addition to listing alleged Tesla owner data, the site reportedly maps out Tesla dealership locations and approximates the positions of the company’s Supercharger stations. However, 404 Media found that while some dealership locations were accurate, there were discrepancies in others.

Attempts to access “Dogequest” on Tuesday were unsuccessful following the publication of the 404 Media report. 

There is no single federal law in the US that explicitly criminalizes doxing, but certain federal statutes may apply depending on the situation, the Post reported. Investigative reporters at 404 Media confirmed that some individuals listed on the site do, in fact, own Teslas or have publicly expressed support for the company and Musk, though a full verification process is still underway.

Meanwhile, weekly demonstrations labeled “Tesla Takedown” continue across the country, frequently leading to vandalism of Tesla vehicles, charging stations, and dealership properties.
