_{Anyone knows how to make a  flight-tracking Twitter bot?}

How does Jack Sweeney track Musk’s aircraft?

..you must be smart..

Programmers solve problems such as these every day..

Check how Flight Radar works: https://www.flightradar24.com

It does the same thing, but for all aircraft.

If you know the aircraft's unique identifier, you can even use Flight Radar data.

How to get a unique aircraft identifier? Find out from social media what a person is doing, where is in a few days, weeks, and analyze Flight Radar history..

 

I guess why anyone would want to track Musk is another question.

Is there anti-tracking software that would entirely remove all Elon Musk news from any news outlets I'm browsing?  Even better, software that allows me to target Musk with a Rothschild XP-42 Orbital Laser the next time he shares one of his stunted adolescent gibes  and/or  Dunning Kruger Effect opinions via social media.

Make your own web browser extension which scans for specified text which you don't want to see. Here is example project:

Add, for example, the display:hidden attribute to the entire paragraph with specified text, and it will disappear (but still take space).
