You are leaving an important part out. They were sharing private information regarding his private jet location. He was also stalked a few days ago based on this leaked information.

Non-left leaning journalists and politicians have been permabanned for much less and many, for no reason at all (as per the leaks).

It's disingenuous to suddenly care about 'free speech' from the same group that has been colluding with the government for the past 5+ years to silence all political opposition and anyone they didn't like.

What private information has been shared by those journalists?

Edit: Never mind, I read your posts again: They were sharing private information regarding his private jet location

This information IS NOT PRIVATE. I literally just looked up and Musk even has private pilots license. You can find who owns what planes and get their numbers.

> "Postscript 2: As it turns out, Elon was using the FAA's privacy program (which anonymizes ICAO) but Sweeney hacked it. This only strengthens the doxxing argument against Sweeney because the info he's publishing is non-public."

You can't cover up a tail number, for good reasons. Crowdsourced information about plane locations is important OSINT for some investors. This is information collected out in public.

It also looks like nobody was willing to sign their name to a police report regarding the supposed stalking incident. And then in a snit he blocks numerous real journalists reporting on when and whether such an incident occurred.

"Thin skinned narcissist buys criticism factory" is proving to be the most elegant and predictive summation of what's happening.

This is the first I've heard about leaks of private information. Do you mean something like it's interior configuration or what food is onboard?

I didn’t leave out a lie?

There was no private information. There was no collusion.

The only person who’s definition of free speech that keeps changing is Elon Musk.
