FSD v14.1: INCREDIBLE.
My car drove me across multiple highways en route to the Orlando airport, where it entered the parking garage, parked, exited, and perfectly executed the ticket booth interaction - without ANY input from me.
It handled other cars and a construction worker on a ladder. It knew to not enter the reserved floor of the garage, which was blocked by a gate. It also ignored floors with “level full” signs, although this might be a coincidence given it went straight to the top level.
I routed it to a nearby Supercharger, it flawlessly exited the garage, and it drove to the charger, where as expected, it parked flawlessly.
My car could not do this yesterday. Overnight, it received a software update to enable this new behavior.
You have to experience this to truly appreciate it. Incredible.

FSD v14.1: Magic. FSD navigates rush-hour Orlando traffic from downtown to Winter Park, perfectly parallel parking in a tight spot right in front of its destination. It then routes to a Supercharger, parking automatically. It even kindly creeped forward to allow a car behind me to fit into a turn lane. Zero input. Magic.

STOP THE FUD around @Ledger
Nothing changes in terms of the trust security model.
Anyone saying "trust is now 100% broken" or "backdoor was always there to begin with" either has no idea how hardware firmware development works or is anti-crypto / bad actor / moron.

Most individuals complaining about Ledger Recover evidently lack understanding of wallet security or, indeed, security in the real-world in general.
The solution, if implemented properly, will be a step in the right direction.
When I say "in the right direction", I imply that it would meet the expectations of 95% of humanity, who already place faith in ID-based recovery for their bank accounts, loans, credits, and more. After all, KYC procedures at all leading financial institutions utilize similar mechanisms. We should not be in a rush to reinvent the wheel until we have more seamless tools, primed and ready for wider adoption.
When I say "if implemented properly", I'm referring to the numerous methods to verify the authenticity of an ID. I honestly presume Ledger will uphold rigorous standards in this regard, mirroring the protocols employed by your bank today.
Ultimately, the safety of your crypto assets and NFTs is a function of the hardware and software used.
The hardware, designed, created, and shipped by scores of companies, can be tampered with by any employee along the supply chain.
Similarly, the software, provided by the wallet provider, maintained by dependency libraries, and hosted by infrastructure providers, can also be compromised.
Rejecting this feature because it necessitates collusion among three disparate entities to retrieve an encrypted recovery seed is, in most instances, irrational. The community should instead demand transparency concerning the measures and controls in place to segregate these parties, akin to the call for transparency regarding Google's Titan security chip supply chain.
To hack an institution engaged in crypto custody, potentially dealing with billions of dollars, would likely require collusion among 3-5 employees. And remember, orchestrating such an act across three separate companies is exponentially more challenging.
This entire discourse boils down to checks and balances and the implementation of layered defenses. I am a staunch advocate for creating a web3 that initially targets the low hanging fruits (such as people losing their keys or falling victim to scams) rather than chasing after unlikely scenarios that could detrimentally affect the user experience, thus potentially prompting users to ignore safety features altogether.
