Very deceptive to call what Tripp posted to Twitter "a trove of confidential internal documents." There were:

- Photos of trailers parked outside the Gigafactory full of potentially hazardous battery waste.

- Photos of shoddy workplaces within the Gigafactory and precision work being done with crude implements like Dremel tools.

- VIN numbers of cars which Tripp believed had been fitted with batteries with possibly punctured cells handled by the defective GF machine.

- Some entries in the accounting system which Tripp claimed supported his argument that waste was not being accounted for correctly.

- Photos of internal emails with Tesla execs (including Musk) where he tried to raise concerns about scrap and the general chaos at the Gigafactory.
