isn’t this basically like doxxing? aren’t the people criticizing this move the ones who would be in hysterics if someone did this to a journalist or politician they like? especially if it was a woman of color or whatever preferred group

The data is publicly available. See https://flightaware.com :)

Edit:

Here's all of the ORD to GRB flights https://flightaware.com/live/findflight?origin=K ORD&destination=KGRB

Here's all Cirrus SR-20s https://flightaware.com/live/aircrafttype/SR20 (Single engine propeller plane, usually privately owned)

No, it's not like doxxing. Doxxing is when you find someone private details and publish them publicly.

This account took public information from flight tracking information and published it publicly.

That's why it's not the same as publishing the home address of a journalists who is a woman of colour.

That isn't true.

Home addresses and the property owner's information are publicly available, typically from the county. This is not considered "private" information in the US, unfortunately.

>who is a woman of colour.

Stop being a racist/sexist. Reddit is that way. You can have all the racist/sexist fetishization parties you want over there. Get this garbage off HN.

@CelebJets tracks the private planes a bunch of celebrities including Oprah Winfrey. If a journalist or politician is rich enough to have their own private plane then that plane gets tracked.
