I just looked it up and apparently this feature continues to work even in airplane mode. That seems crazy to me that doing that is even legal. What good is airplane mode if it doesn't actually disable all onboard radios? I get that it's theater and mobile device radios don't really interfere with airplane takeoff and landing anyway, but given the rule still exists, why are all iPhone owners allowed to ignore it because their devices don't support turning off the radios?

In Android turning "off" bluetooth and wifi just puts them in listen-only mode and this has been true for a long, long time. Zebra devices have always-on bluetooth beacon capability, and even a second bluetooth radio in the battery(!): https://techdocs.zebra.com/emdk-for-android/9-1/mx/beaconmgr/ https://techdocs.zebra.com/emdk-for-android/9-1/mx/beaconmgr...

Where did you find confirmation that "Find my" still broadcasts in airplane mode?
