Attorneys for Taylor Swift are threatening legal action against the Florida college student who tracks the private jets of celebrities and public figures, including Swift.
Well, we got some overriding scenario blasting away all nuance.
It’s hard to be sympathetic toward a fundamental privacy limitation associated with flying in a plane exclusively owned by you. So in this context, it’s easy to equate “Leave Taylor alone!” with "it’s sad how she can’t fly in her private jet without being tracked, there’s nothing she can do!’
Now broadly speaking, I get that a lot of unreasonable piling on is coming with it, but the private jet is a symbol of excess and environmental harm and it’s inherently a risk to hop into that whole mess. Particularly when she could charter private flights to the same effect without the tracking (still excess and environmental harm, but at least obfuscated from public eye a bit).
I never said she should be left alone or that it’s sad that she can’t fly without being tracked.
I don’t care if she can be tracked when she flies. I said she was in the wrong here. All I said was that she generally comes across as a decent person.

Yeah, unfortunately, it’s the internet so we don’t take kindly to nuance around here.
