I think you just like sitting on the fence with a tendency to jump right now and then... Go on - tell us what you really think! That fence looks a little uncomfortable... :sneaky:

Oh no. It has great views and you get to throw stones at both sides :oops:

In between all the pointing and laughing :X3:

I'll give him benefit of the doubt (although I don't believe him!) - we'll see how it evolves. We've all seen how buggy meet apps can be and he did sack most of the top techies, lol.

Hah
Seems there was a snakey snake in the grass
From your article (and I presume the "bug" that needs fixing)
As it turns out, Twitter seemingly has a quirk that allows banned users to still participate in Twitter Spaces and converse with other members, and some of those who had been banned did just that. BuzzFeed reporter Katie Notopoulos started a group chat yesterday evening, and was joined by a number of journalists whose accounts had been suspended by Twitter, including the Washington Post’s Drew Harwell and Mashable’s Matt Binder, as well as Jack Sweeney, the creator of the Elon Jet Twitter account who had his own personal account suspended too.

This however, should be banned.
Trying to circumvent PIA, a system specifically to anonymise a plane ID, is stalking.
I didn't realise that's what some of these okes were doing.

Don't worry all the supposed journalists will just ignore this. Like some have now updated that they did in fact link to the tracking data counter to their previous claims. Oopsie.

Even if we put a pin in the PIA thing for a moment, I doubt people here know that you can look up someone's name in an area's property records and look up someone's address. Similar to, for those old enough (talking physical age not mentally age), to remember phone books. Yet posting just a picture of someone's home would be labelled as doxxing and has been labelled as such even if it doesn't mean the person is physically there. But muh pUbLiCaLlY aVaIlAbLe information :rolleyes:

So for all intents and purposes this bot account is much much worse and actually serves no real purpose. Kinda makes one wonder as to the mental state of the majority of those that had followed accounts like that. However I can bet you it's creator is basking in all the misguided internet praise he's receiving.
Side note private airports don't really have the level of security some here think. Many just have a terminal with chain link fence.

Given some of the claims of other lesser known people on twitter and the supposed death threats they receive, never provided with receipts mind you, one can only imagine about the order of magnitude more that Elon receives. Besides the unhinged person targeting his son by mistake how many other such attempts have successfully been foiled?

Many people are of the opinion that such events should not be made public since it draws attention to it, but I believe transparency is important. Unlike many believe, law enforcement aren't that speedy in addressing such incidents, just take the swotting of YouTube creators for example. Its a federal crime, wasting police resources and being attempted murder, yet there are hardly ever arrests.
