I'm a huge swiftie. That's not a lie. However Taylor's number one issue in my book is her absolute non-caring for the damage she's done to the planet.

This isn't a coincidence. It's not about stalking. Last week she was caught taking a 40 minute flight, releasing more carbon by herself then most of us do in an entire year.

I love Taylor, but it's shameful that she continues to do this. When she dated Joe the tracker showed she flew back and forth between England and New York on average 3 times a week. A week.

And she doesn't even bother to at least buy offsets or something. She could buy massive swaths of rainforest to preserve to make up for it and it'd barely make a dent. She could replant entire forests.

I love Taylor, but I'm ashamed she's hurting the planet so much without seemingly a care - and now trying to sue the people who expose her for it.

If it's public information, she can go suck a fuck.

If it's anything like the guy tracking Elon, or at least the same way, the info is "public" but it's not as simple as hey this is her jet.

The info is heavily obfuscated and it took the guy having some deep understanding of how it all works to figure out how to properly determine how to track them.

But technically yes, it's public.

Edit: it might be a close comparison to a bitcoin address. It's public, and it can be worked out. But in this case she can't just easily buy a 2nd jet. And if she does, they'll figure it out again as info leaks about her travels.

He could have easily made a logger to grab all of the flights at any local airport for a couple of days when she was on tour in the area. After several stops on her tour, he would have enough data to look for which flight/s were at all of the stops on her tour, then he could just factor in the timing of each to find her jet.

The Elon jet guy explained it once during the whole Elon confrontation and it was much more complicated than just that.
