In her Tweet, she said that she complained to a flight attendant, who told the passenger, “You can’t watch that.”
However, the passenger merely paused for a brief period before continuing to observe.
It may be inferred from the complaining passenger's tweets that the event took place in the Polaris business class cabin on a United Airlines international aircraft.
“I worry about flying international, especially in Polaris, where I spend many hours sleeping if the man in front of me is openly watching hardcore porn… with the sound on!” she tweeted.
In their comments to her tweet, some online users expressed that they thought it was "creepy" that she was "spying" on the passenger to the extent that she could see what he was doing on his phone.

The passenger defended herself by claiming that she did not need to "creep" in order to observe and that she was returning to her seat from the restroom when she noticed what he was up to.
In response to her tweet, United Airlines stated that it was "concerning" to hear and asked for flight details so that it could look into the matter further.
