In this Oct. 13, 2018, file photo, a sign marks the entrance to the Tesla Gigafactory in Sparks, Nev. A Russian man was sentenced Monday, May 24, 2021, to what amounted to time already served in U.S government custody and to be deported for trying to pay a Tesla employee $500,000 to install computer malware in a bid to steal company secrets for ransom. Egor Kriuchkov apologized to a federal judge in Reno who acknowledged the attempted hack wasn’t successful and the company network wasn’t compromised. (AP Photo/John Locher, File)
