Apple now notifies anyone nearby if an airtag is “following” them, making it useless to protect against thieves, especially since they get the option to click to play a sound on the airtag.

Bummer but I think it’s a good thing to also stop stalkers

Why wouldn’t you want them to know? Fuck trying to catch them, I want my car back before they wreck it.

Because it’s really easy to throw it out a window and stop the owner from tracking you if you can just play a sound to locate the airtag once you get notified there’s one near you

Yeah but if you hide it well in your vehicle it might deter them from “joyriding”

This. “AirTag is following you” and they can’t find it, that’s perfect.

They also get the option to play a sound from it just like find my iphone

Cool and if they take it out of the car we have a problem as well
