Why is Jxck's personal account banned? What did he do? Applying bans retroactively seems very unfair. (Unless this is an automated mistake.)
That's the whole point: this is all just a figleaf, Elon Musk has a long history of going after people that show him up in every way possible. Next up: the lawsuit. Wait for it.

Re: Twitter has re-suspended ElonJet account
#202legal asked us to ban it again after they learned elon's goal. which was to shadownban-2.0 the account when needed to delay news of certain travel. he came up with the idea when we pointed out other smaller accounts started to post the info and we were considering flagging them as bot last week.
wait this is wild, so much for free speech 2.0
one thing is broadcasting personal information about a citizen, one is protecting a citizens right to object to actions by their government.
collecting public information is still doxxing. most doxxing involves only public information as it happens across the internet.
edit: a downvote is not a rebuttal, sorry, try again.
Re: Twitter has re-suspended ElonJet account
#203Elon 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

Countless literal death threats didn't do it. https://twitter.com/dataracer117/status/1519167734910619649?... But when it starts getting that close to kids, maybe you'd start to take it more seriously too.
That is publicly available information. How hard is to grasp that?
Re: Twitter has re-suspended ElonJet account
#206He should just make a rule that you can’t post about his plane. People would appreciate the honesty
But it would destroy the hero and champion image... and that's what he can't have.

That does not sound unreasonable to me at all. In other words, the idea that some posts might warrant a delay for a range of issues or to allow for investigation. That, to me, again, sounds very sensible.
In the case of the travel plans of certain high-profile people, you know, with so many crazy folks out there, yes, sure, give the news enough of a delay so the person can safely get to their destination. The world doesn't need to know when Elon, Messi, Buttigieg, Oprah or David Letterman in real time unless they choose to disclose details.

I think even if his private jet went completely dark and no updates to its location were posted anywhere this wouldn’t have changed anything here. If this happened (who knows, maybe it did) knowing where the jet landed or took off doesn’t allow you identify the location of any of his children or ex wives/partners

Assuming this is true, and elonjet can post to multiple places... might make a good way to detect which travels are notable.
