I don’t know. This obsession with Musk’s whereabouts strikes me as a little dicey. I get it — there are safety rules. And Musk could charter a jet. But I don’t think making the guy a martyr is a good look.

It would be much easier to have sympathy if he wasn’t the one creating the situation himself.

Maybe because I’m the older brother, but I’ve never been a big fan of the “I’m not touching you” game.

Making your movements 1:1 with a particular, trackable (for good reason!) aircraft isn't martyrdom.
He can fly coach like the rest of us if he actually cares.

You don't think there could be a starry-eyed kid tracking Elon's jet because when he grows up he wants to be just like him? I have a relative that listened to aircraft radio when planes flew over his house. He became a pilot. But kids today don't have radios. They have cellphones.

How does this make Musk a martyr? Any attempt on his life solely based on ADS-B data would require apparatuses that will get law enforcement involved long before it becomes a tangible risk.
