Often the purpose of a legal action isnt to win but to drown the opponent in so much legal fees that they give in.

Mostly it's just a bluff though.

In a previous job, when I was snoping around on my boss' desk, I found a threatening letter from Google's lawyers, personally addressed to me.

The letter was like 2 months old. My boss hid it from me, and nothing happened.

Doesn't her jet fly empty a lot of the time

A few years ago, people were using private jets to fly a box of cronuts from NY to LA.

I like Swift in general but given the information is public, I don't see a shred of a case.

Oh so she doesn't have a case then

the goal isnt to win a case its to get him to stop. Pretty sure he doesnt have the funds available to go toe to toe with her lawyers in a drawn out court battle . Taylor now has shoot you out of a diamond bejeweled canon into a star of fuck you money. Not many people are on her level.

Yeah it's publicly available information so I don't think there's much legally they can do unless they can somehow prove that the kid's planning to do something malicious with it.
What happens if a crazy person decides to meet her at the airport using the information provided by this kid tho.

Sweeneys accounts fueled a free-speech debate in late 2022 when X, formerly Twitter, banned Sweeney for sharing what the platforms owner, Elon Musk, said were his assassination coordinates. The accounts dont say who travels on the aircraft or where they go once the planes land.

Was wondering if it was the same guy. Last time he asked Musk for a job and said he'd stop, maybe Swift can give him a job to stop. After all those Christmas bonuses she gave everyone in her employ is likely far more generous than anything Musk has ever given.

If your goal is to show how damaging certain people are to the environment, don't turn it into something else. I'm all for a smear but the location stuff is ill-intentioned, and for that reason I really don't care if it's public information. Abuse of this information in this was is just gonna see it become private.

The information is being used for its intended purpose. It is literally impossible to "abuse" it.

If this kid wanted to be a hero, he would let Swift's lawyers argue their case, then turn to the ACLU and have them utilize the same argument to ban advertising location tracking data.

God, it would be so sweet to watch a billionaire cost the rest of them at least billions of dollars in lost information.

This is about exposing Taylor harming mother earth with her frequent private jet usage disguised as not wanting stalkers to know where she travels. I remember this controversy one or two years ago and now that Taylor is threaten legal action against the hero of a college kid, full Streisand effect will happen. No, she don't need to go to a restaurant across the country after finishing a concert then flying across the country again within 3 hours for the next concert.

Basically if you want to not be tracked it better be a matter of national security to a country. Get a Prime Minister or President on your plane and you'll be able to not be tracked. Some rich person not wanting to be tracked isn't good enough.

In accordance with the underlying statutory framework (49 USC Chapter 441) and as described in the applicable SORN, the information maintained in the aircraft record is available to the public upon request.

It may be public data but it's also still harassment/stalking. When you're at Taylor Swift levels of fame and notoriety then you have to take things like that seriously. Shit I wouldn't want someone tracking me in any way and I'm a nobody.

Also she kinda has to use a private jet, doesn't she? I mean maybe she doesn't have to but she'd be constantly mobbed if she flew commercial, no?

Don't claim to care about global warming and the environment while making use of one of the world's biggest methods of polluting.

And I found that to be particularly tragic, because young people are the people who feel the worst effects of gun violence, and student loans and trying to figure out how to start their lives and how to pay their bills, and climate change, and are we going to war all these horrific situations that we find ourselves facing right now.

Actually, no. Of all my family and friends, I think I know one person who knows what she looks like.

Seriously, most people couldn't give a shit. Also, people book their vacations months in advance, they don't know who is gonna be on the flight, lol.

There's also the question about if you don't wanna be famous, then singer isn't the profession for you.
