I’m case you have not cried enough today.
Watch Andrés Cantor, the TV announcer for Telemundo, as he calls it for Argentina. He was born in Buenos Aires and, like Messi, moved away from home when he was very young.

Last Thursday, Musk banned multiple accounts sharing information on tracking his jet. Back in November, Musk vowed to allow the plane tracker to stay on Twitter. However, after an alleged incident involving him and his young son being harrassed, Musk took down all accounts sharing his real-time location information, including journalists who posted the link to a tracker website. Musk has expressed that the tracking rose to the level of doxxing, even calling them “assassination coordinates.”
They posted my exact real-time location, basically assassination coordinates, in (obvious) direct violation of Twitter terms of service

Some observers have leaped at this opportunity to mock Musk, drawing an equivalence between the real-time constant location updates he banned and his presence at the high profile and public match.
TELL ME YOU'RE OK! I'M WORRIED! YOUR WHOLE FAMILY!
CAN YOU ACCOUNT FOR EVERYONE? NEVADA, GRIFFIN, VIVIAN, KAI, SAXON, DAMIAN, X AE A-XII, EXA DARK SIDERÆL AND THE UNKNOWN TWINS?! YOUR DAD WHO KEEPS HAVING KIDS WITH YOUR SISTER?!

Someone just doxed @elonmusk again guess they are going to get banned.

However, others were quick to point out that self-doxxing was impossible.
