Apple aims to thwart secret AirTag tracking with tweaks
Apple is updating AirTags to thwart the coin-sized devices from being used to secretly track people instead of just find lost items as intended.
Apple on Thursday announced updates to AirTag coin-sized tracking devices to prevent them from being used to secretly track people instead of just finding lost keys, wallets or other items.
AirTag software is being updated to display a warning the first time it is used, advising that tracking people without their consent is a crime in many locales and Apple will share the identities of owners with police when warranted.
