Many have complained to FAA about the misuse of the ADS-B signals for non air safety commercial gain.
After many complaints the FAA have implemented a system whereby aircraft owners can apply to have their personal details removed from public viewing. AOPA and EAA pressed hard for this to happen and it did.
I wish it were the same here.
