They should just start their own Supercharger company... With blackjack and hookers
I suspect that somebody's smart, with a lot of money and not a lot of scruples (not that it's a factor here, I just hate rich people) is going to scoop them all up and either try to replace the standard, or if Elon is lucky, license it and leave the standard alone. Elon's not that smart though so he probably wouldn't agree to it.
They wouldn't even need to license it, part of getting the other car manufacturers to switch to NACS was establishing it as an open standard. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/North_American_Charging_Standard
