Given Taylor Swift’s recent issues regarding stalkers, it makes sense that she wouldn’t want her daily whereabouts blasted out in such a public manner. In January 2024, a man returned to Swift’s New York residence two days after being arrested for stalking and harassment, according to CNN. Although he was quickly taken into custody, knowing that the first arrest didn’t deter him is enough to make anyone nervous. And, as Swift’s lawyers previously asserted, it is possible that another stalker could use the public flight information to figure out how to intercept Swift’s travels and attempt to approach her at home.
However, there’s also a second possible reason that Swift may not want every flight she takes to become public conversation. Over the past couple of years, Swift has received intense backlash regarding her private jet usage in recent years. According to Rolling Stone, Swift beat out all other celebs, with her plane taking 170 flights between January and July of 2022, thus emitting over 8,200 tons of carbon emission. While Swift’s spokesperson denied that Swift was personally responsible for every flight, she hasn’t been able to shake the label of being negligent towards the environment.
Sweeney’s updates about her frequent travels probably haven’t helped.
