No 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.

The solution is pretty obvious. Has no one ever seen a bank robbery movie? He just needs 3, or 4 or 5, more jets. Each flies off in a different direction.

That would've been cheaper than buying twitter for sure.

"Content that shares location information related to a public engagement or event, such as a concert or political event, is also permitted." Literally the next sentence in the thread linked.

Landing at an airport is a public event

More importantly, flying it in public airspace is.

What I really like about ElonJet and Sweeney's other accounts is they included emission estimates. Really blew a hole in the idea that you could ever consider Musk or Gates to be environmentalists. A recent Musk flight between Washington and Miami emitted 9 tons of CO2 [1], which is nearly double what a fuel inefficient car would emit each year. How can you tell me I'm the problem with my single truck and couple of commercial flights each year when you've got multiple Teslas and hundreds of private flights each year?

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

If that person didn't want their location shared, they should be able to request the tweet be deleted. Multiple offenses against your account? I'd say yes, bannable.

> If that person didn't want their location shared

Is there anywhere in the policy that specifies that? By my read of the policy this is disallowed no matter what the other person thinks.

Oh cool so he'll immediately start acting on all of the other stalkers everywhere too, right? Obviously

The same dude who was the elonjet account has accounts for many other celebrities planes, Bezos, Drake etc. They were all taken down

How many children can the one guy be following at a time? How does he get between all these different places at the same time?

Is there an elonsjetsjet Twitter account to track elonsjets movements?

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.

Boohoo. Elon Musk got a few dozen death threats. Everyone he targets his army at gets thousands of death threats each. And Elon has a very, very, long list of past targets. If Elon wants the death threats to stop he should stop instigating them against others.

He has never done so. Point me to a single tweet where he called for death threats against anyone.

You can't, yet you defend literal death threats just because you don't like the target.

Very believable. Of course spouting a load of nonsense about former Twitter employees to the point that they have to evacuate their home is perfectly ok by that same token.

Quoted post unavailable.

“Yoel Roth, Twitter’s former head of trust and safety, and his family were forced from their home after Elon Musk’s tweets misrepresented Roth’s academic writing about sexual activity and children.”

We constantly hear about how the most mundane criticism on social media is inflicting harm, and words are violence and stochastic terrorism, and ChatGPT needs baby guardrails, but when there are literal death threats ( https://twitter.com/dataracer117/status/1519167734910619649 ) and physical proximity to kids ( https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1603190155107794944 ) the very same people are suddenly dismissing any…

> Legal action is being taken against Sweeney & organizations who supported harm to my family. Is he going to sue the FAA? His live might not be easy, but if he really wants Twitter to be a bastion of free speech, reposting very easy to find public information is probably not where the line is crossed. Also, I'm pretty sure that the people who think of the most mundane things being said by ChatGPT are harmful are not…

What are the harmful things chatgpt is saying? I thought it only said wrong things with great confidence

This might be why: https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1603190155107794944

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

Couldn't he buy a few jets owned by shell companies and have them randomly deadhead around the country as decoys? Or even, gasp, fly commercial?
