Tesla did that essentially with their proprietary charging. Then they essentially strongarmed other companies into adopting their standard.
Only in the us afaik. In the eu this didnt fly. We use menekes type 2 and ccs2, including all teslas.
I hate to side with ElMo, but didn't that happen because they kick started the EV car wave? And apparently their solution was also the better option, or something to that effect.
I think Nikolai Tesla did that a really long time ago.
He made electric cars?!
Yeah, and cell phones and long-range wireless charging.
