A Taylor Swift private jet tracker was threatened with a lawsuit by the star's lawyers. The Florida college student also tracks other celebrity jets.

I’m a huge swiftie. That’s not a lie. However Taylor’s number one issue in my book is her absolute non-caring for the damage she’s done to the planet.

This isn’t a coincidence. It’s not about stalking. Last week she was caught taking a 40 minute flight, releasing more carbon by herself then most of us do in an entire year.

I love Taylor, but it’s shameful that she continues to do this. When she dated Joe the tracker showed she flew back and forth between England and New York on average 3 times a week. A week.

And she doesn’t even bother to at least buy offsets or something. She could buy massive swaths of rainforest to preserve to make up for it and it’d barely make a dent. She could replant entire forests.

I love Taylor, but I’m ashamed she’s hurting the planet so much without seemingly a care - and now trying to sue the people who expose her for it.

    You totally sidestepped what I asked.

    Just because it’s public info, should it be amplified for easy access for all to see?

    If you had a stalker, would you want me to tell them when you’re in town and likely at home?

      Living in a house is not the same as being an environmental terrorist.

        I thought privacy was paramount?

        Do you surrender that just because you’re successful? Sorry, I thought we fought for rights for all, not just the majority, did I miss the memo?

      You’re not asking relevant questions and the questions you’re asking are at best unclear.

      Just because it’s public info, should it be amplified for easy access for all to see?

      What do you mean “should”? I don’t believe anyone has a moral imperative to do so under most conditions, but they should retain the right to do so as they do now.

      If you had a stalker, would you want me to tell them when you’re in town and likely at home?

      No. I don’t think you should be legally barred from it though if you obtained that information legally. Also stalking is already a crime. So what is it you’re talking about?

        Should you be allowed to post somebody’s location in real time?

        I thought it was a pretty straight forward question. I repeated in several ways.

        Privacy is supposed to be important, but because it’s the privacy of somebody wealthy, it suddenly doesn’t matter. Seems like a double standard

          That’s not at issue here.
