Morning Nostriches! So I just saw that the Elon jet tracker joined Nostr. I am outraged that something like this is encouraged by you nostr:npub1sg6plzptd64u62a878hep2kev88swjh3tw00gjsfl8f237lmu63q0uf63m. Elon is a father and the information shared about his movement could be dangerous. We are talking about the safety of a family here.

This shows how dangerous Nostr can be. There are NO safety rules. This isn't funny nor cool. To possibly put the safety of a family in danger at very hard economical times. nostr:npub1xtscya34g58tk0z605fvr788k263gsu6cy9x0mhnm87echrgufzsevkk5s nostr:npub1gcxzte5zlkncx26j68ez60fzkvtkm9e0vrwdcvsjakxf9mu9qewqlfnj5z nostr:npub180cvv07tjdrrgpa0j7j7tmnyl2yr6yr7l8j4s3evf6u64th6gkwsyjh6w6

and all the creators of this space. My question for you guys is how can you guarantee the safety of people in this space? If any information can be out with no moral boundaries. I'm all for freedom of speech but safety is important too.

Although I don’t agree Elon's private jet flight info should be shared publicly, Nostr isn’t the source of it. He knows owning a private jet means his movements somewhat will be trackable by the general public, but he’s willing to take that risk for convenience.

I’m surprised how much people think of Elon
 when the vast majority of people will never cross his mind even if he lived a million years. Maybe we shouldn’t be so concerned with other people’s life choices so much.

At the end of the day, the fault will lie with anyone who uses the publicly available information to cause Elon and his family harm or stress, not with who relays the information.

Don’t shoot the messenger.

I think they should just not have that as public info and then it wouldn’t be a problem.

a counter claim i’ve seen raised is that #[5]​ uses non public information already. i don’t understand these things enough to verify though.

I read through a couple articles about the information he uses and it’s completely public and easy to access. The bot is not making Elon Musk unsafe because anyone could go and get the information for themselves.

The wonderful part about Nostr though is that an individuals feelings don’t come above another person’s free speech. Unless someone does something illegal you only have the choice to not listen to them.

De plus il n'est pas le seul des détenteurs de jets privés qui sont actuellement dans ces nouvelles types de difficultés , du coup certains ont plus de plus recours à la location de jets avec chauffeurs surtout en Europe..

If you own a fairly recognizable aircraft there really isn’t anything you can do. Making ADS-B data completely private would break its purpose (both ATC and other planes need to be able to pick it up). FAA has some programs to let you rotate your ICAO address but you can only request a new one every 20 days (and it can be a pain to change depending on your avionics) so it’s easy to link it back up.

At the end of the day, all of these systems are defeated by people with eyes at airports. We can’t repaint tail numbers every flight


The more private (but still flawed) solution if you care more about privacy than having your own jet is to fly charter (NetJets, etc).
