How is that exactly a risk for a commercial aircraft unless you fear someone armed with a Stinger missile is out to get you? If they had one, I sincerely doubt they would be using public ADS-B ported to a Twitter account to track you around.

You could sometimes track Global Hawk drones above the Black Sea publicly.

Why not, when it's convenient? It's probably not impossible to get a Stinger missile or similar from one of the current war theaters or black markets.

If you have the means and contacts to obtain a Stinger, I'm pretty sure you have means to obtain info on someones whereabaouts. And why wait fore someone to be in the air, just use an IED while on ground.

I wanna be clear, this is just a mental exercise, I do not wish nor want harm to anyone. This is just because Elon's ego is getting the best of him.
