Dozens join lawsuit alleging Apple AirTags are stalkers’ “weapon of choice.”
It’s an interesting question. How much focus should be on apple for providing a technology with a valid use case, as opposed to the systemic issue of the authorities ignoring stalkers and harassers?
Keep in mind that each airtag has a direct link to the identity of the stalker themself. It would take near zero effort for the authorities to actually prosecute these assholes. Instead, the cases are ignored and the stalkers emboldened, until the victims have to seek refuge in any way they can.
A lot of cops are abusers.
And yet, Apple is the one alerting people that an AirTag may be following them unlike other brands.
You mean other iPhone users? You are not a person if you don’t buy an iPhone.
Google and Samsung had to build and rollout safety features because Apple didn’t care for Android users.

The feature needs to be built into the operating system. Apple and Google worked together on a specification for unwanted trackers that’s now built into Android.
