while i love the platform, fr24 filters results so you arent likely to see ultra-cool stuff. adsbexchange does a more open job of not filtering submitted data.
High profile aircraft (ie Trump Force One) tend to ask for their data to be scrubbed from these sites and the sites typically comply; however the data from those planes is still transmitted unencrypted over open airways for anyone to listen in. A network of people who share data could reconstructed and view the data that others wanted removed from public view.
if you give a man a URL he will surf for a day, if you tell him to go to adsbexchange and set up his own filter to see ultra-cool stuff, he upvotes the source.
