TECH - The College Kid Who Tracked Elon Musk's Jet Haggled For A Tesla And Formed a 'Friend for Life' Bond With Mark Cuban Returns To Social Media — Tracking Again | Benzinga
In 2021, a college student made headlines for refusing a $5,000 offer to cease tracking Tesla Inc. CEO Elon Musk's private jet. Now, this tech-savvy person has reemerged on Meta Platform Inc. CEO Mark Zuckerberg's social media platform Threads.
Jack Sweeney, the teenager who gained notoriety for his tracking activities, is again active on Threads. His account elonmusksjet has racked up 127,000 followers. It appears he has resumed tracking and is still in pursuit of the Tesla he once attempted to negotiate in exchange for stopping his tracking activities. Just last week, the account posted on Threads, "Landed in Cleveland, Ohio, U.S. Approximate flight time: 3 hours and 40 minutes." Although he has another account tracking Zuckerberg, Musk seems to be his main target.
