    adding so it’s archived in as many places as possible:

    the reg is N628TS, and you can track it with any ADS-B service

    ADS-B is broadcast from the plane, and able to be picked up by any in-range receiver… services like flight radar 24 aggregate many receivers across the world run by ordinary people

    He already thought about that, and he’s having body doubles, other jets…

    I don’t have any source for this, but c’mon the guy is a military contractor, he works for/with the government (Not Trump or Biden), and they gonna guard him like an asset… like all governments do… the US government doesn’t have any problem with that account… It’s an Internet joke to them…

    But hey… If it gets on Elon’s fragile little ego… I’m all in for it… :D

      ADS-B is public broadcast though… if you’re in range of the plane, you can pick up its air traffic control data (elevation, speed, heading, registration, etc)… services like flight radar 24 don’t work on FAA data: they are a huge network of regular people across the globe with ADS-B receivers contributing everything they see

      Air traffic information is already publicly available. The author of the bot simply scrapes data for Elon’s Jet. You can use websites like FlightAware, Flightradar24, and PlaneLogger that provide real-time tracking of flights, including private jets. You can also search for specific aircraft or view flights in a particular area. I remember shortly after Elon bought Twitter he got the account suspended.

        and worth noting that by “publicly available” here, it’s not like it’s published on some FAA API: ADS-B is broadcast from all aircraft, and anyone can receive its data… these services run by networks for regular members of the public contributing the data from their ADS-B receivers
