So there has never been, is or will be an expectation of privacy.
If someone went through all my publicly available internet posts/any info on me online, put together a dossier with photos of me, and released it online every day from an account in an attempt to make it go viral - again this is all publicly available stuff mind you - then I am going to be very angry/upset and claim my privacy is being violated. It being available does not mean I have no reasonable expectation of privacy on a day to day basis.
Do I feel sympathy for Elon? No. But your line of thinking is very questionable and dangerous here. It’s why doxxing is so effective and wrong. The source of the info is not the only factor in whether we’d view it right or wrong, it’s primarily (or at the very least equally) about how it’s used.
Except flight data has no expectations of privacy.
Your airplane is legally required to broadcast its location in the USA. For safety reasons. Everyone with a private jet has that private jet constantly broadcasting its location.
I don’t like it either, but I’d be lying if I said I didn’t enjoy the irony of people who make billions violating our privacy complaining about their privacy being violated with their own tools.
do you think billionaires/ruling care about YOUR privacy? cause they don’t. These people enact rules and regulations on us like cattle and then live differently as the world burns. A jet tracker is by far the least we can do to keep tabs on these people who would kill us for pennies (and have) and as mentioned it’s all public info anyway, like it matters though.
You can track most flights on flightradar24. It’s public information. When I see an interesting plane fly past I look it up on Flight Radar. It’s usually on there unless it’s a small crop dusting plane.
Even if you are a private citizen, it doesn’t matter. Informations on everyone’s private jets are public information, no matter how “public” of a citizen the owner of the jet is.
There is a difference between keeping tabs on someone & stalking/harassment.
I don’t like the Elon jet tracker stuff, I’m more a fan of privacy.
It’s not stalking though, if he wanted privacy he could fly on a normal commercial plane like everyone else.

This is literally publicly available information.

Not to mention a nice reminder that Elon’s petty fiefdom has its limits.
It’s about as much of an invasion of privacy as posting the weather. It’s publicly available information.

💡 It’s
Shill, notChill.Elon isn’t a private citizen. He’s a public figure.
Rules are different. Elon puts himself in the spotlight repeatedly. He doesn’t live a private life. Many of his billionaire cohorts do.
