Elon Musk and Taylor Swift can now hide details of their private jets/// Private aircraft owners can now ask the FAA to keep their registration information out of the public eye.

I’m not sure I’d ever put TS in the same sentence with that Nazi gremlin.
She may not be as bad but she's still a billionaire who rides her private jet everywhere on a whim contributing more to climate change than thousands of people will in multiple lifetimes and was included in the Panama Papers.

She still has the carbon footprint of a small country.

I hope a traffic controller guides Elon's jet into the tarmac.

The new car is worse. They will sell your info to the highest bidder.
And to every other bidder, too, of course.

the public has a right to know who a plane belongs to.
Why? This "right to know" is pitchfork mentality, really. If something happens the authorities can handle it and only they should have that kind of access, not John Doe. Not all who own planes are millionaires (those probably do register to an LLC).
And you could probably get it with a subpeona or FOIA request if you really need it. This just stops random people from snooping.

TBH we've been able to keep website registration info private for years, and privacy is such a big thing now, sure why not.
Precisely.
I'm no fan of random billionaires, but I'm a huge fan of privacy.

No. Ethical. Billionaires.
Every day she wakes up and chooses not to solve homelessness in Tennessee.

This isn't restricted to billionaires. It will benefit others as well.
can you explain where I'm missing here? unless I'm majorly missing something, is there a benefit for people who don't own, or regularly travel in private planes?

Anyone who isn’t rich in America can go fuck yourself is what they’ve been saying for a while in words and actions
Oddly, millionaires aren't really the middle class. House's in California routinely cost more than a million dollars. And a lot of people probably have a million dollars of retirement in one form or another. (Pensions have a value that very often tops a million). The middle class you are describing (athletes and pop stars) probably are more like 100 million or something. We just don't have a good name for that.
-
How about drones? If you don't want all of your information avaible online and don't want remoteid to directly tell anyone and everyone where you live you can request not to do any of that stuff, right? Oh no, this is just for rich people flying in private jets that can transport humans and tons of cargo.
-
If you own your own home, anyone can get your full name through property records. Is this really that different?
-
If not for the billionaires, why do governments exist?
Huh... Recent context has really ruined jokes like this...
You have to go at it the other way, now:
As someone of modest means, I fully support and endorse giving billoinaires more money. After all, if they don't have money, then what will trickle down to me?
Wait no that's still not funny at all.

She's more like Elon than any of us will ever be

What the "middle class" can afford has changed quite a bit in the last few decades. Owning a home is arguably "upper class" at this point. The median US income was only $80k in 2023. Pentions are also getting increasingly rare. What used to be considered middle class is now struggling to get by.
Middle class is defined by the income of the middle third of the population, not by a particular lifestyle. -

Yes this isn't limited to billionaires. It protects everyone who owns private jets...

Paparazzi can become useful by simply being the ones reporting the plane movement as they follow them around in person.

It's mostly about how she uses flights. It's a waste of energy and a big contributor to pollution when they are taking a whole ass jet for about 5 people to go 30 miles.
