Is he afraid of a stalker following him in a plane? He uses this as an excuse, then discredits himself by going on to threaten legal action against Sweeney. Wants it both ways.

#112Given that it's suspended again - if I create an account that tweets where Elon's jet was yesterday, would that be ok?

I honestly find it impossible for anyone to defend this self-serving behaviour.
Let's be honest - he owns the company and he have every right to do whatever he want with it including burning it all to the ground. So he could just ban that account to begin with and everyone would just learn that Twitter is now his private fan club. Instead he given some empty promises about "being free speech absolutist" and "not banning account that track his private jet" just to do exactly that shortly after. I…
The problem he's going to have to contend with is that you can't be a partial free speech absolutist, especially not when all the exceptions have to do with your own person. It puts the lie to most of his statements on the subject so far. Not that there was any doubt.

#114No they didn't. Or if they did they banned it again after their new figleaf rules were enacted. You can't make this up, what a mess.
Well so long as it's no longer the government asking him to censor things that aren't illegal and ban people they don't like, it's a private company so I don't see what the problem is.

This feels like tweeting something like "hanging out with at " is now a bannable offense? Am I missing something?

Countless literal death threats didn't do it.

But when it starts getting that close to kids, maybe you'd start to take it more seriously too.
Re: Twitter has re-suspended ElonJet account
#117He should just make a rule that you can’t post about his plane. People would appreciate the honesty
Re: Twitter has re-suspended ElonJet account
#118Okay, isn’t finding the car of Elon in a city as big as LA much harder? The plane tracker didn’t solve the needle in a haystack problem

#120Elon posted some info[0] that gives it some context: "Last night, car carrying lil X in LA was followed by crazy stalker (thinking it was me), who later blocked car from moving & climbed onto hood. Legal action is being taken against Sweeney & organizations who supported harm to my family." Make that what you will. [0]: https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1603190155107794944
Are cars reporting real-time location to some online services?
Good that cars dont do it unlike private jets!
That would be terrible for privacy... /s
