Jack Sweeney, the creator of an account tracking Elon Musk’s private jet in real time, has moved to Mark Zuckerberg’s Twitter-rival Threads after being suspended from Twitter last year.
But not Mastodon?
How exactly does this work within TOS I thought threads like most meta products lacks an official api
He may be doing it manually, it wouldn’t be the first time. When he first got banned from twitter and started publishing on Mastodon he was doing all the updates by hand for a while.
Long term there are ways and means that it could be done via the html front end, it would probably take a little bit more monitoring but there seem to be plenty of people willing to help him!
I hate Elon but can someone ELI5 why we really need his live coordinates and not just 24h delayed ones?
It’s how plane tracking works, all flights are tracked in real time. Once the one he’s on has been pointed out you can track it on various apps and services.
It is just returning the favour. These tech billionaires hoover up so much of our data, it only seems fair that we publicise their publically available data too.
I guarantee you if he puts a Zuckerberg tracker on Twitter, Elon won’t say shit about that one.
Are you implying he’s not actually a free speech absolutist and only said so for clout from his cult of worshipers?
See? Not everyone on social media is a bigot. Some of us hate rich people as much as you do, or at least as much as you would if you knew how shitty you have to be to people to become a billionaire.
