Elon Musk’s teen stalker says he’s also now tracking Mark Zuckerberg’s flights

/ 07:10 AM May 31, 2022

There was a time when Elon Musk was the only tech billionaire being tracked by teenager computer wiz Jack Sweeney. But now it seems that Mark Zuckerberg is in the same boat. Teenager Jack Sweeney says that he is also tracking Mark Zuckerberg’s flights. This shows that even the rich and famous are not immune to stalkers.

Jack Sweeney, 19-year-old, revealed in an interview that he’s “pretty confident” he was able to track the whereabouts of Zuckerberg’s private jet even if Meta Platforms Inc. has allotted $27 million to keep its CEO Zuckerberg safe.

Sweeney even shared a photo of the tech giant’s jet on his Twitter account. Although this is not the first time that Sweeney has tried to stalk and track Zuckerberg.

Last February, Sweeney started sharing updates and tracking what he claimed was Zuckerberg’s private jet. Also, in the same month, he debuted the Twitter account @ZuccJet. It was a bot to tweet live updates about the plane’s whereabouts.

Sweeney said, “I find it interesting that he tracks us on Facebook, so it’s fun that this kid is tracking him back.”

The teenager first tracks and sees the aircraft’s registration code images on the tail of what he assumes is Zuckerberg’s jet. It landed in Iceland at that time. The plane was under registration with an entity located in Cheyenne, Wyoming – A7P Trust Co. Inc. Trustee.

Facebook’s Zuckerberg, worth $70.9 billion, has a very tight security detail. Meta makes sure Zuckerberg flies in private jets, even when traveling for personal reasons.

During Zuckerberg’s travels in 2021, Meta spent $15.2 million to protect its co-founder at his home. This is according to their filing. Meta also gave him another $10 million for other security expenses.

The SEC filing said, “we believe that Mr. Zuckerberg’s role put him in a unique position: he is synonymous with Meta and, as a result, negative sentiment regarding our company is directly associated with, and often transferred to Mr. Zuckerberg.”

Moreover, Sweeney then reviewed the private jet’s previous travel locations. He discovered Zuckerberg made a few trips to Hawaii. The tech giant has a 700-acre compound nestled in this beachside state. Sweeney claims he was pretty sure who’s the jet owner even back in May.

The teen also noted that the jet landed in Italy at that time when Zuckerberg posted on Instagram. He showed he was in Milan to meet with fashion industry VIPs.

In addition, Sweeney also said that he discovered that Zuckerberg was no longer using the jet in April. He also added that it was back at the drawing board. This is what makes Sweeney justify his assumptions more, as he said on Twitter that with these details, he was able to correlate the aircraft’s travel history to Zuckerberg’s travels.

However, Meta never released their statement following requests for comment about this privacy issue. While Sweeney also didn’t reply to any requests for comment.

Just earlier this year, Elon Musk already expressed his concern over the account that Sweeney created. With the goal of tracking his personal travels. The account @elonjet now has 400,000 followers. Last January, Musk offered the teenager $50,000 to take down the Twitter account. Although, Sweeney rejected his offer.

According to a report, Musk sends a private message to Sweeney. He said, “I don’t love being shot by a nutcase.”

Moreover, the two tech giants aren’t the only ones that the teen stalker tracks. He now also began following the locations of the Russian oligarchs. He also has accounts of other huge names such as Bill Gates and Mark Cuban. He’s also responsible for the account @ElonJet, which uses publicly available air traffic details.
