Student moves Elon Musk jet-tracking account to rival social media platform after Twitter ban

Jack Sweeney, a student who created an automated Twitter account tracking Elon Musk's private jet location, moved the account to Meta's new platform Threads after Musk's Twitter suspended it.
Sweeney's Threads account gained tens of thousands of followers within days of launching and asked Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg if he would be allowed to stay on the platform.
Musk previously stated that tracking his jet's real-time location on Twitter violated his privacy and safety, leading Twitter to suspend Sweeney's account after Musk took over the company.
Threads launched as a direct competitor to Twitter and gained millions of users, including prominent public figures, shortly after launching.
Sweeney has used various social media platforms to continue manually tracking and posting about the location of Musk's private jet since his Twitter account was suspended.
