Lol. So, uh, yeah. From @internetarchive I see that this is the last tweet that Mastodon has posted on the other site, pointing people to @elonjet
@mmasnick @internetarchive @elonjet wow elon is such a man child. il never get why billionaires are so senititive like dude chill.
@mmasnick And they've also flagged that link as harmful so you can't tweet it anymore after they banned joinmastodon
@mmasnick @internetarchive @elonjet
The Mastodon account didn't actually show anyone's location, it merely pointed to a resource that might allow one to discover such information. So, they committed a meta-crime?
@mmasnick @internetarchive @[email protected] Looks like elonjet has also been suspended from mastodon.social.
@tomato @mmasnick @internetarchive It works fine for me. 🤷
@peterbutler @mmasnick @internetarchive Looks like it's back now. For at least a few minutes it showed an "account suspended" message.
@tomato @mmasnick I can see Mastodon elonjet account just fine right now.
@mmasnick @internetarchive @elonjet That doesn't seem to violate the TOS.
@peterbutler @mmasnick @internetarchive @elonjet it does now, they updated the terms of service to make posting a person's current location, or even linking to a place that does, a banable offense.
@grantelliott @peterbutler @mmasnick @internetarchive @elonjet it contains multiple people... and I don't make the rules Grant
@firewyre @peterbutler @mmasnick @internetarchive @elonjet it might, or it might not, who's to say? And who's to say which of the 8B or so people it might contain? Certainly not any information posted about the whereabouts of the machine itself.
@mmasnick @internetarchive @elonjet It's not even a link to live location data!

@jallepap @mmasnick @internetarchive @elonjet Doesn't even show what car he drives, where he parked, what terminal, etc.

And ManBaby also has a security detail. But threatening Fauci is all good…

@mmasnick

I expect Musk was going to end up taking down the @[email protected] account at some point anyway. But posting this just gave him an excuse to do it immediately, without having to take a second hit later for changing the rules a second time to prohibit competitor advertising or something else stupid that makes him look bad.

It's like being insubordinate to a boss who is trying to make you quit instead of laying you off: you're just making it easier for the jerk to get what he wants.

@larthallor @mmasnick This doesn’t make him look bad, you think?
@juneussell @mmasnick Sure. But not as bad to as many people as it would have looked if they hadn’t tried to promote an account he had just labeled a threat to his child’s physical safety. They gave Musk the cover to do what he wanted to do anyway.
@juneussell @mmasnick I agree with you about Musk ultimately reinstating the reporters. This will simultaneously mollify and cow them and they will stay with him like the abusive husband he most obviously is going to be.
@mmasnick @juneussell And it’s all so dumb, because big media companies DO have the power to establish themselves on Mastodon and help grow this platform to the point where people don’t need Twitter anymore.
@larthallor @mmasnick His labelling it ‘a threat to his child’s safety’ is risible though
@mmasnick @internetarchive @elonjet Dude is just freakishly narcissistic.
@internetarchive @mmasnick @elonjet @Popehat dude is just freakishly rich and multi millionaires & billionaires have been going after private plane trackers for years
@Popehat @mmasnick @internetarchive @elonjet
I suspect that at some point he will make some splashy promise about stepping back...but by that time the people responsible for the day to day moderation are going to be so accustomed to enforcing his whims that everything will just keep rolling (but they will be fired in an instant if there is any negative attention drawn).
Just a miserable situation for employees.
@Popehat @mmasnick @internetarchive @elonjet you guys need to start aggravating your peers to make the move. It’s time people.
@Popehat @mmasnick @internetarchive @elonjet it is truly amazing how little he cares about the intelligence of his cult.
@Popehat @mmasnick @internetarchive @elonjet the whole plan was to spend 44 billion dollars to shape the narrative and part of that narrative is that you can't know where my private jet is.
@Popehat @mmasnick @internetarchive @elonjet Elon has previously admitted suffering from both Asperger’s and bipolar disorder. Both appear to be unmanaged. Elon is well monied but unwell.
@GoldenRuleLover And probable brain damage from ~3 bouts of SARS2 — should be visible on an MRI or CT.
@mmasnick @internetarchive @elonjet elon has gone from evil actor to sad actor in record time. He's such a sad pathetic little fuck.
@mmasnick @internetarchive @elonjet
Seems like @elonjet was the Musk kryptonite all along...
@mmasnick @internetarchive @elonjet @antimnguyen I wonder if that’s what kicked this off tonight.
@mmasnick @internetarchive @elonjet
So that's Elon's excuse for banning the account, but what's his excuse for this?
