Elon Musk offered a teen $5,000 to delete a Twitter account tracking his jet. The 19-year-old has also tracked Bill Gates and Jeff Bezos.
ElonJet has over 150,000 followers, and uses a bot that Sweeney developed to monitor Musk's flights. The feed then tweets out when and where the plane takes off or lands and the duration of each trip.
The Tesla and SpaceX CEO eventually offered the teenager $5,000 to help prevent"crazy people" from tracking his flights. Sweeney countered asking for $50,000, saying he could use the money for college and maybe a Tesla Model 3.The last message exchange was Wednesday, Jan. 19, when Musk said it didn't feel right"to pay to shut this down." CNN Business has viewed the messages.
"5,000 is not enough for how much I get out of it," Sweeney said."It doesn't replace anything, like the enjoyment factor."
