Comment on Apple and Google deliver support for unwanted tracking alerts in iOS and Android
helpImTrappedOnline@lemmy.world 1 month agoI think you’re missing the point.
The google service that is being used for the airtag alert is one of the main ones google uses to track you. Many privacy conscious individuals have disabled this service.
Now the choice is A) disable service to prevent google from spiny on you, but risk being tracked by an airtag. B) keep the service to prevent being tracked by an airtag, but also allow google to spy on you.
Its a loose-loose scenario.

You can also just install or create a third party app to do the same thing.

There is one. It’s called “AirGuard” and it has been around for a while now. I’m using it on GrapheneOS.
