URL makes this sound like it’s supposed to be scandalous
Issue with adsb is that very few outside Europe and the US share their signals, so any app will have partial validity, unless you use satellite feeds.
The bigger issue is that in first world buying a sdr dongle for giggles is viable while in poor countries less so. A raspberry and dongle is a substantial investment if you’re earning 1/20th of a US salary. Don’t think there is an issue with willingness to share data
Is "red" high or low velocity? And as an example, I do not understand what the "Boeing vs. Airbus" selection is trying to represent, as well as how "Altitude & Velocity" are supposed to be displayed at the same time.
Project certainly requires a bit more care if any discussion should happen around it.

This is certainly missing some kind of legend explaining the colors of the lines, and what data is actually shown. Is "red" high or low velocity?

Pick a flight you know (maybe one near yer home) and play with the options -- what patterns emerge? Red draws attention, “Boeing vs. Airbus” compares data, while “Altitude & Velocity” combines them. Explore hands-on; discovery often makes insights click better than instructions.
I've recently added more datasets, "Places", "Birds", "Photos", and "You".
Also, a hint - the rectangular selection tool lets you generate custom reports for a location.
Please just give me a cURL command I can run... (perhaps some services have that, I haven't looked that hard).
We have a an ADS-B receiver at Summit Station in Greenland which we use to track airplanes that produce RFI we see in our experiment. I've considered sharing data (since nobody else seems to have data there) but the feeding instructions always scare me (run this script that downloads a bunch of random crap as sudo... no thanks).
