Your videos nowadays are getting less-smartphone related, and I still love them. Been a fan for over 3 years. Great videos with interesting topics Edit: Firstly, I think people misunderstood what I meant by this comment. I meant that usually I would dislike non-smartphone tech videos, but Mrwhosetheboss made interesting ones that made me like them, not that I want him to only make smartphone videos, as the people in the comments thought I meant. Secondly, not to sound cliché, but thanks for the likes as it provides me with some form of external validation :)

A number of major cities and US states are seriously considering making the sale or use of these illegal. The wife of my sisters boss a long time family freind of ours was stalked and assaulted using these. He and a bunch of other business owners are thinking of actually banning the use of any Apple products on the company premises. This is not a small company either. He was told by the police that was estimated that over 80% of Air Tags were being used to commit crimes.

The ironic thing about Apple's attempts to make them less useful for criminals is that these "improvements" make them less useful for finding a stolen item. For example, last year I had a bicycle stolen that had an AirTag on it. It likely started beeping a few minutes after the thief started moving it, alerting the thief to the AirTag's presence on the bicycle, whereupon the thief could smash the AirTag with a rock.

A few minutes? Try 8 hours after they moved it. If your bike got stolen overnight and you didn't notice for over 8 hours then sure, maybe it started beeping and they smashed it with a rock then, but it certainly wasn't a few minutes after they stole it. If they found it in a few minutes, you didn't hide it well enough and they just happened to spot the tag and got rid of it.

I worked at an organization that supports and provides shelter to survivors of domestic violence and we’ve had to increasingly become better trained to find or detect spyware and it’s some of the first things we do with people when they come in. We have auto shops we work with who will look look over cars and take apart the outer accessible parts. It’s a completely nightmare for a survivor to uproot their family to get safe, only to be undermined and devastated by an abuser who won’t let them be without them and of course it can be lethal. The moment someone leaves is the riskiest part. Violence tends to escalate when the abuse loses their control.

It seems like the air tag also defeats the purpose of tracking your lost item when it’s stolen. So if the robber or thief steals your bags, they might hear the beeping or get notifications if they’re using iPhone. That’s if you or the police finds your bag before 12 hours is up.
@ayush885

Possible solutions : 1. Only police be allowed to silently track stuff. 2. You can silently track your airtag with only your iphone, in a range of 30-50 m from your phone. 3. Once you reach within 5 m of the airtag you're tracking, it'll make noise automatically. Maybe these can help. And as for tracking thieves silently, there's no point of confronting a professional thief, only the police are equipped to do so. If the thief is a coworker, then the 5 m alarm shouldn't be a problem.

Apple could make it such that the airtags would not work if their speaker has been disabled or they've been tampered with in any other way. They've already done it with the iPhones, so this should not be a big deal. Also, instead of continually transmitting its location, the airtag's owner would have to request for it. the airtag would beep when it transmits it's location, alerting anyone in its vicinity who could be being stalked. This obviously is not perfect, since the beep may not always be audible or it may also alert a robber of its existence. That was the best solution i could think of though.

I think the registration is fairly robust, or as much as it can be to protect the AirTag owner’s privacy as well. They can only be registered to a single Apple account and are non transferable. So even if you set up a dummy account to register the AirTag it you’d need other devices logged into that same dummy account that are going to share that location when the person is tracking the device. There are still going to be some ways around it and bad people are going to do bad things.

Let me start by saying I love using AirTags for their intended purpose. I was just on a flight, where my friend’s luggage was lost. Before flying, she had asked me if I could put one in, since I had put one in my own bag, and since I had an extra one I said sure, I would put one in her suitcase and remove it when all the bags got where we needed to go safely. Well wouldn’t you know, the bag got lost. I was able to track it, and figured out that it did get to the destinations airport, so we were able to find the bag within a few minutes, not wasting time searching the origin airport. So that’s a really good use of the technology in my opinion. But I can definitely see how it can be used for bad as well. I could imagine, if I was for example a female Uber driver, being scared that an AirTag could be placed on the car, and then I’d be found home. I can see the argument from both sides. I don’t really have an answer.

Honestly its kinda scary that air tags work by communicating location information to random apple devices. This is straight out of my nightmares of if apple had complete control of the markets. I actually recently got a notification on my iPhone myself about an unknown AirTag having been following for a while. This was after a international flight and I had gotten to my room, and for a moment I was terrified. I was already in another country alone for the first time and then I was told someone was using an apple product to track me. It didn’t help I knew hardly anything about air tags (apple isn’t doing a great job advertising the danger for apple users either). When it said to find the tag and contact the police, I did everything to try and find the tag slipped into my luggage or somewhere and couldn’t. Eventually I just thought I had to ignore it and it went away. Weeks later and I still don’t know what spurred it or what happened to it or if I’m still being tracked.

What I find interesting is how the tech works by piggybacking off other people devices without their prior consent. This destroys much trust a person has in their devices when they are doing things outside of the persons personal use without being agreed to. For instance the Bluetooth functionality is accepted because it is user activated and one would assume their phone is not being accessed without permission unless they authorize the connection on their phone themselves. But what happens when someone finds a way to hack phones when using such trackers to establish a Bluetooth connecting with the device and bypass any security that would deny this. And there is of course people who would wish to opt out of being apart of the tracker program and they did not buy a phone to then have it used to support other products/services they were not interested it. I'm curious about how others find this choice of a company to access peoples devices for the purpose of selling others a new product.
@robonator2945
@robonator2945 2 жыл бұрын
that is the one aspect of this apple actually is guilty of. They retroactively opted you as a consumer into this. Now, I don't technically believe this classifies as illegal although it might under some obscure definition. (It would primarily depend AFAIK on whether or not you could choose to avoid updating the device whenever the airtag support was added) Nor do I necessarily believe Apple doesn't have the right to do this. Apple has ALWAYS sold a locked down operating system on devices they control, that's their MO, you knew thats what you were buying, so you could make a convincing case that this is just a step in that process. However, instead of questioning the legality or morality of this which is more or less irrelevant, (since as mentioned it is so complex) lets instead realize who gives a shit because Apple pulls crap on it's consumers constantly and anyone sitll buying Apple products knows damn well what they are getting themselves into. If they somehow don't, let this teach them. The law is fickle, politicians can be bribed, laws have loopholes, but if you just inform people and educate them on what it is they are buying, a company can't bribe more money into existance. If no-one buys their shit, doesn't matter. (and if they ever DID try to somehow bribe more money into existence, it would be a PR nuke) People continue to argue about WHAT Apple does, has done, will do, etc and 9/10 its bad, so why the hell do people keep buying their shit. You haven't just been fooled once, you haven't just been fooled twice, you are inventing new god damn numbers to try to have a hope of recording how many times you have been fooled.

Theres obvious concerns imo about apple in the latest years for me for just this weird behaviour, where they try to seclude themselves as the good guys, but then make bonkers decisions that break their own rules about established security and privacy things. Honestly, privacy is a product but it shouldnt be, apple sells themselves as like the only company you should trust, but they are all out on making big bucks from all the people that go with their flow and throw all kinds of money in for products they dont really need or even should buy. Most apple products offer less for more money and dont make sense at all from the big picture. It also shows very well how all this dumbening of the smart products hasnt really made lives easier but people dumber. I honestly dont even trust their secrecy on most things they do cause it sure does seem sometimes that they either are brainwashing people with false claims or just reversed advertising or just are more deeply in the US gvn than people think. Steve Jobs, altough he was an uptight asshole of hippy, wouldnt certainly be happy about apple in this day and age. It shows well in reviews also that people are so biased towards calling everything apple makes so wonderful and perfect, while i have many times more issues since i bought my 12 pro max and updates from my 300 euro honor 10. It doesnt feel like a complete product with all those downfalls of bugs, lags and just stuff not working how it should in logical sense. All worked perfectly on android and even when it got slow i knew i could count on it handling everything i wanted. Basically, i work at an apple store, but i dont recomment apple anymore. I dont care how great their chips are or how the ecosystem works together, if it means youre pretty much joining a jail with no way out.

And touched on Apple's security measures and their flaws, So he covered that, But then many people don't actually fully listen or watch a whole video before they comment. There's no need for Apple just to stop selling them, But it should be people's choice if they don't want to use them in certain situations, Or at all, AND to be aware of this stuff happening and take precautionary measures as Arun suggested - Which is helpful for many people.

One thing I can say - Hand on heart - Is that AirTags *aren’t* communicating directly with mobile/4G/5G or WiFi networks. There is no way an AirTag could use those means of communication and still get a years operation out of a CR2032 button cell! :-)

I found one in a parcel once. I had bought something on a site which allows you to not disclose your location and address, The seller brings the parcel to the post office with a code and the post office issues the address and sticks it to the parcel after the seller is gone. But there was a tag inside the parcel so this completely ruined the anonymity and i actually moved two weeks after that after reporting the seller to the police and the police waited for the seller to burglarize my place and when he came he was caught and arrested and the tag was traced back to him. Now if i used any kind of online shopping from people to people with anonymity i collect the parcel at the post office myself and check it entirely before i bring it home. But to be honest i have almost completely stopped buying online because of this. I also check my bag and clothes constantly when i am on my way home but how can you check your car constantly. The fact that this is legal to sell is ridiculous. It was marketed for bad people i am certain of this, not for good people to keep tracks of their belongings. Because if someone steals your stuff the first thing they are gonna do is check for a tag and when they find it they will put it in a balloon inflate it and throw it in a river or inflate with helium. The only thing an air tag is good for it to attach to the collar of your pet, that&s the only good use of it.

About 20 years ago I was a technician at a research company that was working on cutting edge tech for the time like wearable and tablet computers, video compression, ADSL and wireless networking. Most of the prototypes and products we used Apple has since made their own shiny white version and pretended it invented. A guy came there to give a talk about this concept of short range radio devices signal piggybacking on each other in a sort of physical cloud. Even back then my first thought was it was a terrible idea and would be an absolute security nightmare. And I was just thinking about the data being insecure, I didn't even consider the location tracking aspect. Crazy times.

as a younger teenager, i went to my first weeklong sleep away camp a while ago. i was looking on my phone after getting off the bus and going to my campus' dorms. i got a notification that an airtag was tracking me. the only places someone could have snuck something like that on me was on the bus or at the place i ate lunch that day. i contacted my camp leader and she told me to just ignore it. never found the airtag or the person. it eventually stopped following me.

Could’ve been just someone who tracked their own bag and was just located near you. I have one on my keys so I don’t loose them and every once in a while one of my coworkers gets the tracking notification when their sitting at a desk near me.

i think my solution in this problem is basically you get a notification if theres a airtag near you and you can confirm if its yours or not by clicking yes or no. if its not urs then the airtag shuts off (im assuming that air tags can be shut off since i dont really own one so i dont know how it works) ofc you have to check if there actually a airtag with you before clicking no because it could be someone else airtag that Ur phone is tracking so now you have "yes" which means the airtag is urs , "no" if it's not urs , "not mine but also not with me" it mean that it's tracking someone else so it will ignore that airtag

Almost any technology can be misused but the reason AirTags are being misused so much is that they work pretty darn well for their price. I'm surprised Apple's own internal review and marketing teams never thought to raise this issue.

@Joe how exactly? You will never know if you have an AirTag on you if you don’t own an iPhone. On Android you have to manually initiate a scan to know if there is an AirTag near you. Devices that run anything older than iOS14.5 will not be able to detect the AirTag and there is no alternative for those devices.
