  1. Taylor Swift's attorneys have threatened legal action against a Florida college student who runs social media accounts tracking the flights of her and other celebrities' private jets.

     

    Jack Sweeney, a junior at the University of Central Florida, has for years run accounts that log the takeoffs and landings of planes and helicopters owned by hundreds of billionaires, politicians, Russian oligarchs and other public figures, along with estimates of their planet-warming emissions. The accounts use publicly available data from the Federal Aviation Administration and volunteer hobbyists who can track the aircraft via the signals they broadcast.

     

    In December, Swift's attorney at the Washington law firm Venable wrote Sweeney a cease-and-desist letter saying Swift would "have no choice but to pursue any and all legal remedies" if he did not stop his "stalking and harassing behavior".

     

    Sweeney, 21, told The Post he saw the letter as an attempt to scare him away from sharing public data. The accounts offer only an incomplete sketch of which cities Swift might currently be in, similar to the public schedules for her concerts or any NFL games she might attend, he said. And the letters, he added, were sent to him at a time when she faced criticism over her flights' environmental impact.

    Private-jet flights are criticized for their disproportionately high impact on climate change, and Sweeney's accounts have often been used to name and shame their most famous passengers. In 2022, the accounts were cited in an analysis that estimated "climate terrorist" Taylor Swift was the biggest celebrity [carbon dioxide] polluter of the year. "This information is already out there", he said. "Her team thinks they can control the world".

     

    After receiving the letters, Sweeney said he asked for help from the Electronic Frontier Foundation, a digital rights group, which sent his request to a list of attorneys. James Slater, a Florida lawyer who specializes in First Amendment and internet speech issues, responded on Sweeney's behalf to the Venable letter: "This isn't about putting a GPS tracker on someone and invading their privacy. It's using public information to track the jet of a public figure", he said. “This is their means to try to quash a PR issue and bully my client to have the bad coverage die down".

    Hitlor's attempt to put a gag order on anyone who is a threat to her image continues. When will people wake up to this narcissist's behavior?

    It sounds like her parents are control freaks along with having a stage personality. The way most of these pop stars see Britney are seen more than a product from their families is very sad and creepy. She was literally born and trained to be a brand, it's kinda scary to be honest with you.

    I am not surprised thar she is as much of a calculated overachiever after reading this email. It seems that she is very much taking after her parents. They definitely drilled her into becoming America's sweetheart. It’s all artificial…

    And I also wouldn’t be surprised if he hired all these lawyers to threaten journalists and reporters to only write positive articles about her. He seems wat too invested.

  3. The fact her jobless fans kept this idiot's career afloat by mass posting "relatable memes" about her shouldn’t be enough to be thankful for on her part. Unfortunately, not being the best or most successful in everything is impossible to process for narcissists, so they'll always believe it has to do with others conspiring against them.

    Nicki shouldn’t have a career anymore at this point. The people still stanning this despicable rape apologist are the main problem.

  4. Why did ANYONE even get their hopes up?

    She clearly hates this album cause it was the product of major label interference and caused her to have a huge meltdown, an identity crisis and it was a commercial failure.

    In addition to that, she was granted a massive budget for this era and had a lot of projects planned that never came to fruition.

    The unreleased video for DWUW is a ticking time bomb that will take a huge toll on her career if it ever leaks in full.

    It's obvious why she isn't willing to actually revisit this mess of an era and her fans need to stop pretending that this was her best album or something. It’s literally SO FAR away from her original vision and was intentionally watered down with awfully basic songs, because Interbomb wanted to make sure she was able to compete with the likes of Katy Perry and Taylor. They removed all the more experimental EDM songs in favor of more radio-friendly trash.
