Your phone tells you that there is a tag following that doesn’t belong to you. Just saying is the problem the product or that people are becoming aware that products like these exist
January 12, 20224 yr I did the opposite. I bought an AirTag and put it in a discreet place in my car. So if someone steals my car, I can track it unless they assume there's an AirTag in it and spend the time looking for it.

Apple says they alert you up to 24 hrs. and several victims didn't get alerted for several hours until they got home all the time their whereabouts were being tracked. Pretty creepy. For me it's the product and It's already being misused.
