I really hope these Airtags can reduce theft. Living in SF I had so many bikes, bags and motorcycles stolen. I'd love to have an Airtag in these things and show the police where my stolen item was. I wonder what law enforcement's response is going to be with the airtags? Will having an Airtag's location be enough for a warrent? Will people become vigilantes and try to get their stuff back without law enforcement?

"Sorry, we have too many other cases"

Probably not (see answer #1)

Some of them, surely. Most of them, no.

We already see this with things like bicycles that people are able to track down on Craigslist.

Startup of private airtag "recovery" services could be a thing.

Just wait till your bike is on the move, then get a group to recover it.

if they get 200 reports to the same location they might investigate.
