It's been said before it's impossible to determine what is misinformation and what is genuine, because who moderates the moderators? Well, who determines what is private info and not? ElonJet is skirting the line between public and private, as another poster suggested, you have no right to privacy when in public (is a private jet's location public?) Regardless of whether it is a privacy violation, how do you police it? Because eventually you would have the risk of, e.g. an affair Elon had becoming public information. Is that "Elon's privacy" with posts relating to that to be squashed? What about one of his kids getting involved in a corruption scandal with the lithium mines in Bolivia? Is that privacy? A politician favourable to Elon needing some hush money covered up? |

Sure you can know. Here is some common sense examples: Suppose you are on a jury. One case on trial, the rich guy's had a break-in that involved private info where the thieves targeted a car, at some scheduled event. The question at the trial being the 'private' whereabouts of that car, on that night. Pretty straightforward, to determine connections, between crime, and the inside info used. You could try, I guess, to play dumb, there. But the other juryers would point out the connection, between the sensitive info (whereabouts of car), and the facilitating of the crime. Playing dumb (disingenuous) would have said something like: " had no idea thieves could use that info to target that particular car." |

AFAIK the only ties Elon had with Bolivia was shitposting about doings of US government on Twitter. |

And your smart phone confirms this by setting your current Google location to "designated smoking area." Big data is big business. Keep feeding their big data money machine. You've already consented by being connected. --- Quote ---Come woo me, for now I am in a holiday humour and like enough to consent. As you like it --- End quote --- |
