Apparently, Taylor Swift has no major blemishes on her record, except that she has lended out her private jet to family members and other close relations for seemingly trivial trips.
So people are focusing on that.
She could do something unconscionable soon, statistically, but nothing has happened yet.

Didn’t she just sick her legal team on the random kid who was tracking her public flight record habits? I was under the impression it stemmed from that (highlighting her frivolous plane usage).

Yeah, and this sucks to say, but this is a case of different circles. When you’re that rich, you tell people hey, why is this guy…, and then your legal team sends a cease and desist letter.
It isn’t suing him or anything like that, it’s telling him to stop it plase, legally.
She’s so rich that it’s very scary, but it’s basically like a neighbor knocking on your door, with the very important caveat that if her steel toed stuffed animal boot decides to kick your door in, you have no legal recourse, since you can’t mount a proportionally paid legal defense.

Someone wrote about this recently but i can’t find it. May have been a NYT article.

It’s also a grey area because she’s such a big public figure that, while the kid is completely within their rights to do this, it presents a pretty big security/privacy concern for Taylor Swift and her family.
I saw somebody mention recently about this whole thing that celebrities like her use transportation like private jets specifically because of security concerns compared to driving and other, more public forms of transportation. The general public and the scummy paparazzi aren’t all that different sometimes, and the general public is more likely to have some nutjob with an agenda about the Super Bowl or something.

It’s the kind of thing that makes me think that when either side of a legal case spends money on lawyers, they should have to donate an equal amount to the other side.
