Overall: Couldn't find a quote saying he uses twitter bots specifically, but I'm pretty sure that's my problem not your mistake. I'd appreciate a particular source and quote. In terms of neutrality, I think the article should cover the privacy concerns raised by the individuals he tracked. A. C. Santacruz ⁂ Please ping me!21:07, 8 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
A. C. Santacruz, I added this citation to the article, [1]: "Russian businessman Roman Abramovich tracked by a teenager's Twitter bot" "Anyone with an antenna can receive these broadcasts. You also need the SDR and computer to process the ADS-B signals, but that's basically how the database and Sweeney's Twitter bots work." In this CBS article [2], Musk states that he cited security concerns and that he worried about nutcases. I added the latter part to the article. Thanks for the review!

This page currently is a backup of the "Thursday night massacre" page, rephrasing the same interpretation of the event.
Even if blackmailing billionaires is a good enough reason for someone to earn a wikipedia page (which it shouldn't be), the interpretation of the specific event is definitely of place here:
"I mean, this looks horrible. He literally said he was keeping my account up for free speech".[14] On December 15, a number of high-profile journalists who covered Twitter's removal of the ElonJet account were also banned, an event that has been called the Thursday Night Massacre.
