Last thing: @nnedv dismantled this product over the course of a 20-minute conversation. That's all it took. They were both cordial and empathetic when pointing out Apple's errors. But how long was this product in development? Years?

Experts detail how Apple AirTags can be used by an abuser to discreetly track a partner despite built-in protections, especially when victims are not iOS users

AirTags are powerful surveillance technology.  And the National Network to End Domestic Violence believes Apple has more work to do to fix them.

What I'm saying is not new. It's already obvious to much of the design community, and echoes years of realizations in the space. Which is why it's so hard to watch Apple launch a product like this, in 2021, that halfway addresses the very issues it invents
