I don't think she is being a dick, as privacy is definitely important. But the tracking info is public knowledge, so you can't really stop people from tracking you. Your private jet flies in public airspace, and that's that.
"Waaahhhh people are tracking me in my private jet" she is 100% being a dick. Fly in a regular ass plane like normal people do and problem solved
That, uh, makes no sense. Regular ass planes are public. The point here is to remain private, not be even more public.
Yes, "public"
With a mouth mask on in business class, nobody would recognise her.
Lol problem definitely not solved, that's making her even more public.
People would swarm her. She would probably cause a bunch of delays. She's literally too famous to justify flying commercial.
Edit: she's definitely complaining about someone simply relaying public information, but she can't sit down at a football game without people parking themselves outside the door to the suite she's in. There's no way she could just chill in the back of C group with the rest of us.
Exactly. Her flight data should be public, definitely, but goddamn do I not want to be on a commercial flight with her. Flying is painful enough without all the craziness that would cause. I don't even want to be in the same airport at the same time.
When did I say she's better than us or deserves special treatment?
She's an insanely famous public figure. It's the people who go crazy over her that are the problem. If given the choice between getting trampled by 100 people or taking a private plane, literally all of us would pick the same choice.
The part where you implied she is allowed privacy while the rest of us don't.
We're all entitled to privacy. Idk about you, but I can go about my life in relative anonymity, so even if I'm in public, no one pays attention. She can't do that.
Nah. She is choosing to fly in a private jet. That data needs to be tracked and publicly available. She is free to take a tour bus. One of her flights is my CO2 emissions for the year. Certainly not as bad as Musk who regularly takes 15-20 mile flights but definitely something that needs to be cut down on.
Privacy is important, and transparency is important. It's public knowledge for a reason, and to try to take legal action against the people who use it is worse than just "being a dick."
In public, there is no expectation of privacy, least of all if you are a celebrity.
I think a nice compromise would be to have a time delay on the data, so that live data is not readily available, for example 4 hours delay maybe
If the FAA doesn't delay the data, why should anyone else?
Want us to compromise on anything else while we’re at it? Burning down the rainforest? Poisoning small children? Clearly you’re comfortable letting billionaires who shouldn’t exist have everything they want. What else can we do for you to facilitate the apocalypse?
Clearly those are all fair comparisons.
I thought that data was already delayed by 15-20 minutes.
