Brilliant, I just ordered a couple. But I bet that case muffles the sound when the AirTag decides to sing you the song of its people. This might be a boon to AirTag stalkers who are too lazy or unskilled to disable the sound and upgrade the battery life.
- kylebenzle 2y ago> This might be a boon to AirTag stalkers who are too lazy or unskilled to disable the sound and upgrade the battery life. What a nonsensical fear to have.
- jakedata 2y agoWhy is that nonsensical? Airtags are very nice little bits of technology, a marvel really. But examples of abuse are not theoretical. Increasing the battery life by years and placing the airtag in a waterproof case are totally valid things a legitimate user might wish to do, but it also enhances their nefarious or unethical use potential. That is not nonsense.
- fragmede 2y agothat's not the part that seems nonsensical. it's the idea that a stalker wouldn't just pull out the speaker.
- wlesieutre 2y agoOr for the comment's theoretical "too lazy or unskilled to disable the sound" stalker, wrap the airtag in a sock and stick it in a tupperware container. "Put the airtag in a box" is not really an exclusive invention here.
- Zababa 2y agoMost criminals are dumb. Anything that makes their job easier can increase the crime rate/efficiency of their criminal activities. I'm pretty sure stalking with devices increased after the Airtag was released.
- hiatus 2y agoEven android will notify you if you are walking around with an airtag in your pocket.
- kylebenzle 2y agoExactly, the "concern" is nonsense.
