    she'll probably just drown him in legal fees, which is well a bit evil? He's a 21 year old student posting public information like this is so embarrassing for her

    period. like there's no discussion here lmao he's not some type of taylor swift hater or obsessed with her, he's not personally targeting her, he's using PUBLIC INFORMATION and targeting hundreds of billionaires, politicians, Russian oligarchs and other public figures and not even posting about it in real time. if an obsessed stalker is stalking her believe me he's not using this guy's work to do so, they're using real time trackers  
    also didn't they say she's not the one using the jet all the time? that she loans it out regularly to other people? that it wasn't right to attribute all of the flights to her? please

    Also imagine a billionaire going after a fucking student just for highlighting publicly available information. This is a weird and petty battle for her to fight and not a good look.
     
    I was actually rooting for her over the whole IA picture scandal, but this is bizarre.

    Taylor Swift's attorneys have threatened legal action against a Florida college student who runs social media accounts tracking the flights of her and other celebrities' private jets.
     
    Jack Sweeney, a junior at the University of Central Florida, has for years run accounts that log the takeoffs and landings of planes and helicopters owned by hundreds of billionaires, politicians, Russian oligarchs and other public figures, along with estimates of their planet-warming emissions. The accounts use publicly available data from the Federal Aviation Administration and volunteer hobbyists who can track the aircraft via the signals they broadcast.
     
    In December, Swift's attorney at the Washington law firm Venable wrote Sweeney a cease-and-desist letter saying Swift would "have no choice but to pursue any and all legal remedies" if he did not stop his "stalking and harassing behavior".
     
    Sweeney, 21, told The Post he saw the letter as an attempt to scare him away from sharing public data. The accounts offer only an incomplete sketch of which cities Swift might currently be in, similar to the public schedules for her concerts or any NFL games she might attend, he said. And the letters, he added, were sent to him at a time when she faced criticism over her flights' environmental impact.

    Private-jet flights are criticized for their disproportionately high impact on climate change, and Sweeney's accounts have often been used to name and shame their most famous passengers. In 2022, the accounts were cited in an analysis that estimated "climate terrorist" Taylor Swift was the biggest celebrity [carbon dioxide] polluter of the year. "This information is already out there", he said. "Her team thinks they can control the world".
     
    After receiving the letters, Sweeney said he asked for help from the Electronic Frontier Foundation, a digital rights group, which sent his request to a list of attorneys. James Slater, a Florida lawyer who specializes in First Amendment and internet speech issues, responded on Sweeney's behalf to the Venable letter: "This isn't about putting a GPS tracker on someone and invading their privacy. It's using public information to track the jet of a public figure", he said. “This is their means to try to quash a PR issue and bully my client to have the bad coverage die down".

    MTE. It's hard to see this as a "safety concern" or to even think safety is her main issue with this. The idea that the private jet tracker is causing her "emotional distress" when she's killing the planet to dash between her home, tour and football games is bonkers. She's like the female musical equivalent of Elon Musk, and I'm tired of both of them.

    considering it's public information... i'm on the student's side, he isn't posting anything personal about her or any sensitive information, if she's so bothered, maybe she should be more considerate of her carbon emissions instead of suing people who are rightfully raising awareness to her harmful actions, i can sympathize with her being worried about stalkers, but at the end of the day, he's just simple relaying what is already public information, i don't even know if she really has a case here because of that
     
    i am SO ready for people to be over her, her music is horrifically bland and basic, she's incredibly overhyped, she's the epitome of capitalism, and she's a billionaire who has enough wealth to change the world for good, but she cares more about taking as much money possible from her fans by releasing 10 different versions of her albums, 400 vinyl variants, and $500 concert tickets, just more money she DOESN'T NEED
     
    i know i probably sound bitchy, but i don't care, sometimes we all need moments to be bitchy

    If anything this is just going to encourage more people to track her flighting logs down, and this is not adressing the actual issue as well.

    this is what pisses me off most about her and other billionaires private jet usage. corporations pander to us and moan at us to recycle and use sustainable practices when in reality it is a drop in the ocean compared to the shit these celebrities get up to in the name of convenience FOR THEM
     
    taylor doesnt care for anyone but herself, and this lawsuit evidences that perfectly. the nerve to try and sue someone for publicising publicly available knowledge just because it inconveniences you is abhorrent quite honestly
  14. Coloringbooks liked a post in a topic by West Coast in Taylor Swift Threatens Legal Action Against Student Who Tracks Her Publicly Available Carbon Footprint/Private Jet Usage   
    So we should cut Taylor some slack because she's already at the receiving end of so much "criticism" and because other celebrities/billionaires have questionable environmental practices? She's the one sueing, so I don't see why this concerns other celebrities/billionaires. Besides, this is publicly available information posted after a 24h window... there's very little concern over her safety. We all know she's touring anyways.
     
    A lifetime of paper straws won't do shit for the environment with these people around.

    maybe he should countersue for ACTUAL emotional distress, since he’s being bullied for doing the right thing by the most famous woman in the world. taylor swift is just a corporation and he should get as much money as humanly possible out of her

    the thing is with (lets use kim as an example) skims or kkw beauty/rem/etc is that it is providing a commodity to people, so the horrendous carbon impact is slightly offset by providing a service. taylor swift is providing absolutely no service to anyone but herself by parading around the country in a private jet. 
     
    it is just a straight up lie that it is causing 'emotional distress' and it is purely a game of her trying to intimidate and use the legal system to put people less fortunate than her down.

    Any and all flight logs should remain publicly available data and you shouldn’t expect a right to privacy when zooming on ur private jet on the daily 
     
    Private jets should be banned anyway

    This person is compiling public information and posting it with a 24 hour delay. While I understand safety concerns, it is a little different than posting real-time info.

    ALL climate polluters should be held accountable. Exposing their horrible climate crimes isn’t being mean to them lmao.
