This is actually an interesting debate because it actually puts into question at what level people should be allowed to track other people. We would not want the government to follow us around, but a private citizen knowing where we are is kind of like stalking and could endanger them.
They aren’t tracking her. They are tracking her plane. Planes need to be tracked and the info should be public.
We should be, but aren't, tracking trains and trucks in a similar way.
I get it, but she is typically the person in the plane (I am guessing), so I think it is pretty fair that its tracking a person and it gives people details on where they are.
Iirc she (or someone on her pr team) has publicly stated that she actually isn't on board most of its flights; she charters it out frequently
Does she say that or is it misinformation? Also can people easily figure out where she is from that information. I think if she doesnt use it very often then its not a big deal, if not then it is kind of stalking.
Taylor Swift isn't a private citizen.
How so?
You don't get to be both a regular person and a famous billionaire.
I would say she is not a private citizen when she joins a government position.
It's ok to be wrong.
Oh whatever turbo, your view is inconsistent at best.
