Vapiskaa Russian oligarchs, 19 years old Jack Sweeney is after you. Sweeney rose to prominence by coding to be one of the richest people in the world Elon Muskin a bot that collects and publishes airplane flight data.
Now U.S. student Sweeney has done the same for Russian oligarchs.
He wrote on Twitter this Saturday:
In his free translation, Sweeney says in his message that he has set up a tracking bot called PutinJet. At the same time, he points out that the material is by no means complete, as there are numerous private machines in Russia.
Creating an accurate tracking tool is also difficult because, according to Sweeney, Russian machines do not make extensive use of ADS-B technology, which allows them to be tracked.

Potanin is Bloomberg’s billionaire index according to the richest man in Russia and the 57th richest man in the world. He has assets of approximately $ 24.7 billion.
Potanin, a co-owner of the Norilski nikel Group and the Polyus Gold gold mines, is one of Russia’s most influential people and Putin’s hockey friends, for example.
Alekperov is the CEO of the oil company Lukoil and the 255th richest man in the world. He has assets of $ 8.8 billion. Lukoil produces about 2 percent of the world’s oil.
Deripaska is a billionaire in the metals and mining industry, according to Forbes, and his assets are now worth just under $ 4 billion. He was once the richest man in Russia, but today his fortune is only a fraction of what it used to be.
On Monday, Deripaska criticized his country, saying it was time to end “state capitalism” and change policy.
“Economic policy needs to change, all this state capitalism needs to stop,” Deripaska said in a messaging application in Telegram.
At the same time, he demanded “explanations” from the authorities about what would happen to the Russian economy over the next three months.
Sweeney has been tracking the flights of carmaker Tesla ‘s CEO Musk using its bottles since June 2020.
Musk, one of the richest people in the world, offered Sweeney $ 5,000 in January to close his Twitter account.
According to reports seen by CNN, Musk first contacted the student in late November. Musk asked the student to delete the account because it is a security risk, according to Musk.
Musk offered the student $ 5,000 so the “crazy” wouldn’t keep track of his flight information. However, this was not enough for Sweeney and he asked for $ 50,000 to fund his studies or buy Tesla.
The Sweeney bot is still active. It released the latest information on Musk flights 17 hours ago.
Sweeney has also developed flight data account accounts, including Microsoft Billionaire Bill Gates and the Amazon billionaire Jeff Bezosin private machines.
The news agency was the first to report on the matter Bloomberg.
