The billionaires who control social media want to be clear about what’s OK to post online and what’s not.
Social media platforms like Meta and X (formerly Twitter) tolerate a wide range of content but restrict public tracking of celebrities' private jet routes, citing privacy concerns.
Meta suspended accounts run by Jack Sweeney, who used public data to track jets of prominent figures like Mark Zuckerberg and Elon Musk, highlighting privacy risks for powerful individuals.
The article points out the irony of Meta's selective privacy enforcement, given its ongoing issues with protecting users from harmful content like disinformation and predatory behavior.

But my post telling people where I could be found in the mountains when hiking was for cybersecurity or whatever (in case I disappeared I made this post).

That's... Incitement to violence, pretty sure that's banworthy everywhere since it's actually illegal.
It would be equally illegal to say 'kill the poor', 'kill <some racial group>', or 'kill fans of the big bang theory', though obviously nobody would object to the latter.
