On the other, it sounds like the alert was not timely enough to allow her to prevent the AirTag from disclosing her home location.
- pc86 5y agoThis seems more luck than anything else, right? It's just a function of how long it takes the software to determine which phones to alert, and it's more or less random whether or not someone will go home during that interim period before they get notified.
- carbocation 5y agoI actually don’t think this is particularly salient to my point. Whatever mechanism Apple has chosen, and whatever degree of luck Apple is relying on, that mechanism did not work in time to protect this person’s home location from being disclosed.
