Jack Sweeney, a 19-year-old college student and aviation enthusiast, created the @ElonJet account, which provided regular updates on flights of Musk by using publicly available data.
Musk on Thursday said: “legal action is being taken against Sweeney and organizations who supported harm to my family,” arguing it put his son at risk.
“Any account doxxing real-time location info of anyone will be suspended, as it is a physical safety violation. This includes posting links to sites with real-time location info.”
Even Sweeney’s personal account got suspended from the micro-blogging platform along with the other tracking accounts that he created.
On November 7, Musk claimed that the account was a “personal safety risk” but he will not suspend it as a part of his “commitment to free speech.”
In January, Musk had offered Sweeney $5,000 to remove the Twitter bot tracking the movements of his private plane.
Meanwhile, in February, Musk had blocked Sweeney on the micro-blogging platform. Later, Sweeney said he had created 16 automated Twitter accounts, or bots, similar to @ElonJet to follow jets owned by Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates (@GatesJet), Amazon’s Jeff Bezos, the billionaire entrepreneur Mark Cuban and the rapper Drake.
