I bought a Tile but refused to use the tracking feature because it felt very insecure.

Apple should not be penalized for offering something inherently more private than the competition.

What would you say are the reasons that Apple's implementation of this protocol is more private?

In other words, I am ignorant to how Apple's implementation is more private or feels more secure than Tile's.

Even Apple doesn't know what location was just reported. Only another of your devices can decrypt the location data.

This is pretty cool!
