It is just returning the favour. These tech billionaires hoover up so much of our data, it only seems fair that we publicise their publically available data too.

Fair enough, looks like I don't hate him to that level then as I still don't see the point in wasting time to do something just because Elon seems to hate it and I certainly won't let him live in my head rent-free.

I am with you on that.

Considering the massive hissy fit he's thrown over it, it sounds like it was worth the time to me.

Agreed. It’s worth watching that asshole be upset. I don’t see or think about it any other time, but it’s fun to see him frustrated

Then don't. Nothing in the world compells you to follow this account or even think about it. The point is to demonstrate that even billionaires aren't about the law.
