<p>(Reuters) – Jack Sweeney, the creator of an account tracking Elon Musk’s private jet in real time, has moved to Mark Zuckerberg’s Twitter-rival Threads after being suspended from Twitter last year.</p>
<p>“ElonJet has arrived to Threads!” read Sweeney’s first post on Thursday from the account handle @elonmusksjet, which had over 21,000 followers as of Saturday morning.</p>
<p>ElonJet has tracked the movements of Musk’s private jet using data available in the public domain.</p>
<p>In December <span itemscope="" itemtype="http://schema.org/Corporation"><span itemprop="name"> Twitter Inc </span></span> (NYSE:), owned by Musk, suspended the ElonJet account, with the billionaire threatening legal action against the account’s operator after saying his son had been mistakenly followed by a “crazy stalker”.</p>
<p>Meta-owned Threads, posing a direct challenge to Twitter, garnered millions of users in hours, including prominent figures such as Kim Kardashian, Jennifer Lopez and Democratic U.S. Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, as it seeks to take advantage of its rival’s weakened state after a series of chaotic decisions from Musk.</p>
<p>Sweeney, Twitter and Meta did not immediately respond to a Reuters request for comment. </p>
