Tesla has the biggest "network" of connected vehicles

No they don't, their market share of all cars sold globally within the last decade is far from the biggest.

hated and despised by many so are a likely first target

I think this may be a bubble we're in. The vast majority seems to not really care either positively or negatively about Tesla. It's just a car to them.

    I think I mean they have the largest percentage of their cars that are connected to the same homebase... Like...all of them.

    Tesla may have the largest percentage of their own cars connected, but they don't have the most number of connected cars. That would likely be GM with their 30 year old Onstar service.

    Tesla has only sold 8.9 million vehicles over the whole life of the company, while GM has over 12 million Onstar connected cars sold.
