So I can track every person that doesn't have an iPhone?

> an AirTag separated from its owner for an extended period of time will play a sound when moved to draw attention to it.

How long is "extended"? It probably won't take more then 60-90 minutes to track someone.

This also sounds really annoying. Anytime I leave a tag somewhere I have to somehow be able to tell it "don't buzz" and if I forget it annoys all the people near where I left it. Leaving things at my parent's when going out while visiting, leaving things in a hotel room, leaving things in the gym locker, etc...

> If a user detects an unknown AirTag, they can tap it with their iPhone or NFC-capable device and instructions will guide them to disable the unknown AirTag.

So if don't own an NFC capable device? How many people would even know to "NFC" the tag or how?

I don’t viable these are viable for tracking since these are linked to your iCloud. I’m willing to bet that with a. Warrant Law enforcement can ask Apple to identify a specific airtag.

Knowing whose airtag it is isn’t all that helpful in domestic abuse cases. My partner is a domestic abuse survivor, if there were an airtag found on her items we’d know exactly whose it is, but we’d still be scared for both of our lives, probably need to permanently vacate our living area, and the police wouldn’t be all too helpful. (Restraining order already in place, not much help when the opposing party is insane)
