(Reuters) – Jack Sweeney, the creator of an account tracking Elon Musk’s private jet in real-time, has found a new platform to continue his venture after being suspended from Twitter last year. Sweeney has now joined Mark Zuckerberg’s Twitter-rival Threads, attracting a significant following within a short span.
“ElonJet has arrived to Threads!” exclaimed Sweeney in his inaugural post on Thursday, using the account handle @elonmusksjet. The account, which has garnered over 21,000 followers as of Saturday morning, keeps a close eye on the movements of Musk’s private jet, utilizing data accessible in the public domain.
In an unfortunate turn of events, Twitter Inc, which is owned by Musk, suspended the popular ElonJet account back in December. Musk, displeased with the situation, even threatened legal action against Sweeney, citing concerns that his son had been mistakenly followed by a “crazy stalker.”
However, with the emergence of Meta-owned Threads, a direct competitor to Twitter, Sweeney has found a new home for his popular account. The new platform gained millions of users within hours of its launch, including high-profile personalities such as Kim Kardashian, Jennifer Lopez, and Democratic U.S. Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. Threads aims to leverage Twitter’s recent turbulent decisions, positioning itself as a viable alternative.
At the time of reporting, neither Sweeney, Twitter, nor Meta had responded to requests for comments from Reuters.
As the world continues to follow the movements of influential figures like Elon Musk, the demand for real-time updates and insights into their activities remains strong. Platforms like Threads provide an avenue for users to gather and share such information, attracting a diverse user base seeking a distinct user experience.
