So here’s a great moment to start asking Tile & Amazon why they don’t include any anti-stalking/abuse functionality. i find it interesting that the Tile product comes with its own keychain loop built in, while Apple’s product requires accessori…

AppleZulu said: I haven't seen any commentary about a flip-side of this issue: Air Tags as evidence against stalkers. These devices are registered to a single user, and presumably leave a data trail on Apple servers somewhere. It's easy for a…

hammeroftruth said: So according to my tech friends who work at Apple, most stalkers use their victim’s appleid and iPhone to track them. No airtag needed. I get that the author of this article is concerned about stalking and privacy, but I…

entropys said: No doubt if Amazon releases a “firetrack” tag this dude will liken it to the second coming. What’s your reason for this belief? Because you guys have some kind of “us vs them” cultish thinking going on here...?

Spanading_returns said: So this guy is complaining even though the AirTag both notified him on his iOS device and sounded an audible alarm, as it was supposed to. The failure was “ it did not work as well as HE HAD HOPED”, this should just h…

Speed1050 said: It’s not much of a story, really. Anybody who wants one of these for nefarious reasons will have already bought a £30-40 GPS tracker with a SIM that relays live data without any safeguards, and is no bigger than an Airtag. Y…

MacQuadra840av said: The article also left out the fact that if the iPhone is not running iOS 14.5 or later, the 'missing' AirTag won't alert the nearby phone. Not everyone installs the latest updates and some people still have phones that c…

Yes, ads SUCK! Ads are effectively an epidemic of corporate greed and sociopathy. Especially in this context! I’ve already paid for this product, but hey, now you can try to use me to squeeze more money out of my usage of your product? PISS OFF!!!!

Ads suck. They’ve become an egregious invasion of every space on this planet, physical and virtual. They waste more bandwidth than anything users intentionally do (I suspect there’s more data going back and forth fr advertising than willful streamin…
