Wait! Think about the children! What if we need to track pedophiles!?
Only poor antifascist trans people are pedophiles dummy. /s
You mean Republicans? Yeah they won’t allow that, silly
The pedophiles are in power, except “real pedophilia is when the gays do it”.
So can guys like Epstein…
This doesn’t do anything, all these aircraft are already in trusts. You can still track them, the N number/ICAO ID is what people are using
This is actually most helpful to the little guys that own $20,000 airplanes.
I have a small airplane and it’s always bothered me that my name and address are publicly accessible through the FAA registry.
Most pilots I know are careful about photos they publish online showing their tail number printed in large bold letters on either side of the aircraft. This registration number can be entered into websites like flightaware.com and someone is literally two clicks from seeing my full name and home address.
Can you take me for a ride on your plane?
Shitposters ride for free
Hell yeah :D
Why would you want to hide that information? As long as planes use public skies everyone should be identified. Thats like the very basics of every secure operation.
Absolutely air traffic in the sky should be identified. There is no problem with that, but it’s the idea that it is too easy to find out everything about an aircraft owner by simply seeing the number on their tail.
The rich guys obfuscate that info with shell corps to own the aircraft.
Shouldn’t everyone have the right to the same level of privacy regardless of how much money they have?
Maybe the rich guys shouldn’t be able to it instead and thats what should change?
Anyone who isn’t rich in America can go fuck yourself is what they’ve been saying for a while in words and actions. Millionaires are the middle class today, actors and athletes and pop stars. Anything below is just a fucking scum fuck to them.
Oddly, millionaires aren’t really the middle class. House’s in California routinely cost more than a million dollars. And a lot of people probably have a million dollars of retirement in one form or another. (Pensions have a value that very often tops a million). The middle class you are describing (athletes and pop stars) probably are more like 100 million or something. We just don’t have a good name for that.
Petite bourgeoisie is what they are called. Wealthy people without an aristocratic title, not part of the ruling class and who still use their own labor to create wealth.
Honestly, I think this will be a bigger boon to folks like Elevated Access than to the billionaires of the world. Makes it a little harder for some chud who doesn’t like what they’re doing to show up at a pilot’s home with a rifle.
Glad to hear there is a good thing to come out of this
Luckily the FAA has no power in europe
I’m not sure I’d ever put TS in the same sentence with that Nazi gremlin.
She may not be as bad but she’s still a billionaire who rides her private jet everywhere on a whim contributing more to climate change than thousands of people will in multiple lifetimes and was included in the Panama Papers. Her greed and abuse of the system will always be closer to Elon than any of us
No. Ethical. Billionaires.
Every day she wakes up and chooses not to solve homelessness in Tennessee.
Maybe they’re rich people saying fuck y’all, but TBH we’ve been able to keep website registration info private for years, and privacy is such a big thing now, sure why not.
Precisely.
I’m no fan of random billionaires, but I’m a huge fan of privacy.
This is a good thing for us normal humans. More privacy is always a good thing. Let it spread further…
This is a good thing for us normal humans. More privacy is always a good thing. Let it spread further…
I mean do we have any reason to expect it to travel further? The system made a few billionares feel uncomfortable, now they don’t feel uncomfortable, the law isn’t going to expand.
If a face tracking or car tracking system were to go live. Billionares would find a way to exempt themselves from it, but make sure it was live for everyone else. The reason there aren’t exceptions made for this rule, are because there’s not a whole lot of poor private plane owners.
This isn’t restricted to billionaires. It will benefit others as well.
Yes this isn’t limited to billionaires. It protects everyone who owns private jets…
can you explain where I’m missing here? unless I’m majorly missing something, is there a benefit for people who don’t own, or regularly travel in private planes?
That’s just awesome 😬😬😬😬
I undertands Musk’s, but why do we hate taylor swift now?
There 👏 are 👏 no 👏 good 👏 billionaires 👏
