Why not?


It's like saying why don't I spy on you wherever you go, almost like the creepy stalker in Hollywood who terrorizes celebrities and don't respect privacy.


Private jets don't get privacy by FAA rules. If anybody has an issue with that, they can either take it up with FAA or stop using a private jet. Banning an account on Twitter isn't doing anything.
