Jack Sweeney has interacted with two of the richest people in the world in 2022, but it wasn’t exactly pleasant conversations.

Sweeney is the man behind accounts on Twitter Inc. that track the private jets of several notable billionaires. While Sweeney turned down an offer from Tesla Inc. CEO Elon Musk to stop tracking, here’s why Mark Cuban’s jets will no longer be tracked.

What Happened

Sweeney turned down an offer of $5,000 from Musk to stop a Twitter account tracking his jet. Sweeney later said he would shut down the account for $50,000 and was ultimately blocked by Musk on Twitter.
