Marinetraffic is a good example of enshittification. Started well, now it's heavy and ad-laden, practically useless without a paid account.

Sounds like Flightradar24

In case anyone isn't aware:

https://globe.adsbexchange.com

– is an alternative to FlightRadar24 with more data.

ADSBX used to be volunteer ran until JETNET paid the guy who controlled the domain name $20 million dollars to "sell" it to them and steal everyone else's source code and data. They now do selective filtering to appease their commercial clients.

Everyone has moved to https://globe.airplanes.live/ and https://app.airframes.io/flights now.

Here is the lawsuit from one former group of contributors: https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/23963235-golden-hamm...

Unfortunately adsbexchange does not allow you to see the source/destination of flights

At least for FR24 you get a "Gold" account (no longer business) simply for running a feed.

		Nitpick: It's called Contributor and supposedly has the same features of the previous subscription. It still feels like a setup for future degradation by some marketing genius.

I find Marinetraffic is fine without an account.

Here is a link to oil tankers anchored around the Strait of Hormuz. It has much better filters:

		Any of these provide satellite data without charge? Also - is there any sites that publish parsed data from SAR sats?

And what’s the similarity to flight radar?

A real time visualization using AIS instead of ADS-B feeds, presumably

as opposed to the dozens of other flight tracker sites?
