OFC you can use an #AirTag (or multiples!) to #stalk people, and whilst it's illegal (and I I'll condine it regardless of legality!) it's now even more rampant than pickpockets!...

You know how many of those #stalking devices I've microwaved already when someone asked me to check their stuff for #trackers?

• I'd say it's a low-to-mid double-digit number, because by the time #police gets their hands on those as evidence, they got remote-wiped and even if they didn't the buyers obviously didn't link them to any #Apple - Account with real credentials...
  • Worst-case they abuse some homeless person as " #MeatProxy" to get blamed and as soon as that one's getting caught, they're already gone...

#Stalking is a Problem and #AirTags are #IoT - style, physical #StalkerWare that's rampant in the wild, as they are not just a #COTS product, but cheap, common and even #TechIlliterate assholes can use them.

• No need to use shady Stalkerware sites and -Apps like the ones @maia@crimew.gay / @maia@soc.tuxpaintadventures.com investigated in her #fuckStalkerware series...
  • Every asshole with enough cash or a credit card can get their hands on these and doesn't even need to know how to #DIY stuff!
