These kind of devices have been available for years, including from Samsung who has just as many phones out there as Apple. Of course as soon as Apple makes one – taking extreme pains to address privacy concerns – everyone pops up to armchair quarterback.
- angry_octet 5y agoThe speaker is trivially disabled, and the AirTag continues to function. > These kind of devices have been available for years Devices like Tile do not have access to a global network of iPhones. SmartTag only works with Samsung Galaxy devices, and we've yet to see if it works beyond the current model. Apple will make this work for everything. My old iPad from 2014 still receives software updates!
- eknkc 5y agoThere are gps trackers for dogs (I mention these because they are extremely available) that use cellular data. They track much better, faster, more accurate. If I wanted to track someone to the point that I’d disable an AirTag speaker, I’d not bother with an AirTag.
