They won’t be, because Elon failed at this already. Use of public information isn’t illegal. Aggregating and sharing that public information elsewhere or in a different format isn’t illegal (and is likely protected speech).

If she’s experienced some kind of harm, it’s not because the bot exists, it’s because the public information exists.

Additionally, if the person in question used pooled leased planes it would be much harder to track them. Swift and Musk always use the same planes so they are easy to track.

FYI - the Elon Musk flight tracker is alive and well on Mastodon.
