The anti-theft argument is a bit over stated.

1. The thief would probably still find the tracker.

2. You would probably still lose connection/track of the device.

3. Police would probably still be reluctant to travel to a private residence somewhere and try to find it.

4. Are you going to physically find and confront a criminal yourself?

Encrypt your digital devices, have backups and insure anything valuable. That is the better than using some tracker and spending your time trying to chase down criminals.
