Tracking Taylor Swift's Private Jets Made Harder Under New Congress Ruling

Tracking Taylor Swift's and other celebrities' private jets would be practically impossible after Congress passed a bill that would allow private aircraft owners to fly in anonymity.

President Joe Biden passed the H.R.3935 last week that would effectively protect jet owner's information when registering in the Federal Aviation Agency's publicly-available civil registry.

The legislation was passed amid the rise of flight tracker accounts on social media recording every air travel of notable celebrities and billionaires, including Swift and Tesla CEO Elon Musk.

Taylor Swift Cracks Down on Jet Flight Trackers

Swift's legal team has previously sent a cease-and-desist letter to one of the account holders of the private jet trackers to stop their stalking and harassing behavior."

According to Swift's legal team, publishing such information puts the singer in a "life-or-death matter."

The American pop star has been previously criticized for consuming large amounts of fossil fuels to support lavish travels, regularly riding her private Dassault Falcon 90 and Dassault 7X jets.

Swift later sold her Dassault Falcon 90 jet, which was also documented through the public FAA records and flight trackers.

Jet Tracking Remains Legal with a Few Caveats

That said, private jet tracking remains legal in the US. Those who will be doing it, however, would have a higher chance of being sued for a federal crime.

Most of the information on private jet tracking accounts came from the FAA civil registry, sharing details from non-official sources could run into other privacy laws, including the anti-stalking act in California.

In response, Jack Sweeney, owner of the private jet tracker accounts for Musk and Swift, vowed to "push even harder" in tracking the singer's flight records.

Sweeney, a college student from the University of Central Florida, did not provide much detail on how they will source their information soon

Sweeney previously advocated that there is "nothing unlawful" in monitoring celebrities' private jet flights.
