Elon Musk has resuspended a Twitter account tracking his private jet and has threatened to pursue legal action against the creator of the account after claiming a “stalker” confronted a car carrying Musk’s child Tuesday night in Los Angeles.
Twitter on Wednesday suspended accounts that track the locations of private airplanes, including one that tracked CEO Elon Musk's jet, which was reinstated by the evening.that the accounts violated Twitter's"doxxing" rules, meaning they revealed nonpublic personal information.
Musk went further Wednesday evening when he said he would pursue legal action against Sweeney after he claimed a “stalker” confronted a car carrying Musk’s child Tuesday night in Los Angeles. Musk did not say whether police were called. Sweeney said he hasn't received any notification of legal action, and the last time his bot tweeted anything was Dec. 12,"which is not last night, so I don’t get how that’s connected.”
The @ElonJet account was briefly reinstated Wednesday evening after attention was called to the suspension — but by Wednesday night it appeared to have been suspended again. Other social media accounts created by Sweeney tracking Musk's jet, including ones on Instagram and Telegram, remained active.
