Taylor Swift threatened to sue Jack Sweeney for tracking her private jet but not over AI pictures of her

Since Taylor Swift is the biggest pop star in the world, she has millions of people obsessing over everything she does.

Of course, the topic that fans obsess over the most is her relationships.

After all, fans want to know how she was affected by her parents, if she was friends with her peers like Toby Keith, and even how rich her exes are.

On top of that, fans are also interested in unexpected things about Swift like her teeth.

Unfortunately for Swift, her fans also took an interest when someone tracked her jet, that she threatened to sue, and another person posted AI pictures of her, who she left alone.

This article will look at how differently Swift handled things when explicit AI pictures of her were posted and when someone tracked her jet. Then, the article will reveal that if Swift took more action about the AI pictures that could have changed the laws in America.

Taylor Swift Threatened To Sue Over Her Private Jet But Not Over AI Pictures Of Her
Over the last several years, a college student named Jack Sweeney has severely upset several celebrities. Sweeney has done this by tracking publicly available information about how stars travel by private jet and sharing that information on social media.

In February, the BBC published an article about Taylor Swift’s anger at Sweeney. That article brought up the fact that Elon Musk spoke out about how angry he was with Sweeney in 2022. Musk banned Sweeney from X/Twitter after accusing the college student of sharing his “assassination coordinates”. Sweeney’s X/Twitter account was later reinstated, however.

In 2024, the world learned that Sweeney had ticked off the biggest pop star in the world and her many devoted and outspoken fans. In fact, Swift’s lawyers threatened to sue Sweeney on the pop star’s behalf.

In February, The Hollywood Reporter reported on the details of the cease-and-desist letter Swift’s team sent to Sweeney. As a part of that letter, Swift’s lawyers pointed out that she has a long history of being targeted by stalkers “and other individuals who wish her harm.”

In January, a man was arrested outside of Taylor Swift’s home twice in three days. This was only the most recent example of Swift having to deal with a stalker before her lawyer’s cease-and-desist letter to Jack Sweeney was reported on.

Swift’s lawyer went on to write about how profoundly Swift had been affected by Sweeney’s reporting on her location.

“This reality has forced our client to live her life in a constant state of fear for her personal safety. That fear is and has been significantly heightened due to your reckless actions.”

Later in the cease-and-desist letter, Swift’s lawyer called Sweeney’s conduct illegal. “Your willful and repeated harassment of our Client is in violation of several state laws. As is your intentional, offensive, and outrageous conduct and consistent violations of our Client’s privacy.”

The letter from Swift’s lawyers also defined the situation as a “life-or-death” matter for the pop star. The cease-and-desist letter ended with an explicit threat to sue Sweeney.

“Accordingly, we demand that you cease and desist from any further use or operation of the Offending Accounts (and any similar accounts involving our Client), remove all content related to our Client from the Offending Accounts, and immediately stop providing information about our Client’s location to the public. If you fail to adhere to these demands immediately, and by no later than close of business on December 26, 2023, or if you continue to publish information that threatens our Client’s safety, she will have no choice but to pursue any and all legal remedies available to her.”
