Tesla Supercharger Sabotage Increasing Nanaimo Incident Raises Concerns

The recent fire at a Nanaimo Supercharger station, attributed to vandalism, has me thinking is this an isolated incident or a growing trend? Similar incidents across the US suggest a disturbing pattern. Should Tesla owners be worried about the safety of their vehicles while charging? What security measures are in place, or should be implemented, to prevent further attacks? Are these acts of random vandalism, targeted attacks against Tesla, or something else entirely? Perhaps more worryingly, the article mentions ALL charging stations at the location were tampered with. This level of premeditation suggests something beyond simple mischief. Is this a coordinated effort? What are the implications for the future of public EV charging infrastructure? Your thoughts and experiences are welcome.
