Jack Sweeney Relaunches Elon Musk Jet Tracker With 24-Hour Delay
After Twitter banned his original account, Jack Sweeney creates a new profile to track Elon Musk's private jet with a 24-hour lag. The persistent college student continues his tracking efforts on multiple platforms despite ongoing legal threats.
Jack Sweeney launches a new Twitter account called @ElonJetNexDay to track Elon Musk's private jet with a 24-hour delay. This move comes just over a week after Twitter bans his original @ElonJet account, which boasts 530,000 followers. The University of Central Florida sophomore demonstrates persistent dedication to sharing public flight data despite the sudden platform suspension.
Musk previously offers Sweeney $5,000 to shut down the original account, citing serious security risks, but Sweeney counters with a joking request for $50,000 or a Tesla Model 3. Twitter ultimately cites unspecified rule violations for the ban, which coincides with Musk's claims about a stalker incident in Los Angeles. The platform simultaneously suspends Sweeney's personal account, his other jet-tracking profiles, and several journalists who cover the unfolding situation.
Undeterred by the mass suspensions and Musk's public threats of legal action, Sweeney actively expands his tracking presence across the internet. He maintains a real-time jet-tracking account on Mastodon that quickly gathers 67,000 followers, alongside active tracking pages on Facebook and Instagram. Whether this delayed Twitter account represents the final chapter of this ongoing digital feud remains entirely uncertain.
