Jack Sweeney, the student who makes a hobby of tracking Elon Musk's jet, has joined Jack Dorsey's two new social media platforms.
Sweeney joined Dorsey's Bluesky on April 30 under the same handle he previously had on Twitter, which permanently suspended all of the accounts Sweeney owned in December, despite a promise from the billionaire not to. The University of Central Florida student programmed a series of Twitter bots to post the private jet activity of tech moguls and Russian oligarchs alike.
In light of his controversy, Sweeney addressed Dorsey, who sits on Bluesky's board, asking him in a post,"What's ur take on ElonJet?"TWEET FROM FBI LEADS TO IDENTIFICATION OF JAN. 6 RIOTER Nostr is another social media platform Dorsey has funded. Sweeney created another account on Nostr on Saturday. Sister accounts exist on Donald Trump's Truth Social and Mastodon.
Musk previously said he would take legal action against Sweeney. The current Twitter CEO attempted to pay Sweeney $5,000 to delete the account. Sweeney declined the offer and said he would consider it if Musk provided $50,000 and a Tesla Model 3.Bluesky only has around 40,000 users, but more than 360,000 users have downloaded the iPhone app since its February launch, according to Data.ai. Notably, Bluesky's beta version is only available via invite currently.
