The screenshots are consistent with FlightRadar24’s format when set to “Radar (blue)” mode. https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transporte_aéreo_de_jefes_de_Estado#Venezuela. FlightRadar24 and other similar websites are populated with automatic dependent surveillancebroadcast (ADS-B) data transmitted from aircraft equipped with ADS-B transponders. ADS-Bequipped aircraft automatically broadcast unencrypted data, increasing the visibility and traceability of aircrafts to improve safety. ADS-B technology is different from radar, as it does not require active interrogation from or communication with another unit. Government, commercial and military aircraft around the world transmit ADS-B data, which is published online. In March 2020, for example, FlightRadar24 published real time flightpaths of approximately 180,000 aircraft per day. Pilots may disable this data transmission if required for secret or sensitive flights. However, it generally remains functional during normal operations (including military operations), and as such, flights are regularly tracked and flight paths are posted online. For example, Air Force One, the aircraft that carries the President of the United States, transmits this data, which is regularly tracked and published. Flight enthusiasts and journalists use this publicly available information and post flight paths of official aircraft worldwide. FlightRadar24 and other commercial sites will block the publishing of information about specific aircrafts on request. A Government or other aircraft owner could submit a request to the website to cease publication of its movements; the aircraft and its movement would then not appear. See, for example, the following Twitter accounts that post the 157
