> Just because you make more money than me doesn't mean you're entitled to an exception from the same risks everyone else takes.
But the risk that famous, very wealthy people have is not the same as other people have.
As an average Joe, you can publish your real-time coordinates on the Internet and usually, nobody will care.
Extremely famous and wealthy people simply cannot do that (unless they take many other security precautions which would greatly interfere with their lives).
They are under a much higher risk of being kidnapped, tortured and murdered than other people. And this risk is also applicable to their family members.
And yes, you can hire security, but you'd still be at a much greater risk, completely unnecessarily.
> And for that matter, considering that everyone else is also getting spied on real time coordinates-wise based on mobile phone, but no one seems to muster the will to care it weakens his case substantially with the additional ATC interest.
I agree that everyone else should not be getting spied on. But even when they are, this information is not getting publicly broadcasted.
And even if those mobile phone coordinates were publicly broadcasted in real-time, not only would it be illegal and there'd be a lot of outrage (in certain countries, at least), the physical security risk for ordinary people simply would not be the same as for famous high-net worth individuals and their families.
