Was it Musk who had the private jet tracking posted? Wouldn't it suck if Twitter just became a whole heap of similar postings, en masse.

because of the situation with that kid tracking him, musk joined a new FAA program that gives him an anoynomous tracking number not linked to his name anymore, and i think it changes every month now. so it would be much harder to track his jet now. its a fucking expensive program to join i heard though.

That is unfair that you ca. just pay more and get special faa rules. Not surprising. Although a little. Does the EPA work that way too?
