I'm not sure "free speech" equals "data is public", and I'm not sure that the flight tracking data at least for private jets should be made public at all.

Or at least I don't see a difference between private cars location being vs private jet location data being released.




Now go and read up on what ADS-B is and does and you'll discover why the data is available.


If a certain law or policy instructs you to jump off the roof immediately, would you necessarily do so? Also, technical means (ads-b) and regulations around accessing the data are two different things, no?

Also, why do you have to show that directive agressive tone to me? I didn't do anything bad to you.
