No, the thieves looked into this, saw it was way more expensive than the stuff they can get elsewhere and paid no attention to it. If this is getting spread to anyone who didn’t already know, I’d guess it would be YouTubers. We should see in a few weeks!
Yep because that car will just be ONE BIG AirTag!
well from what it sounds like, the apple car will be stolen immediately!
It really depends on whether you just filled your gas tank. You might end up being down $28.53. It's a risk to consider and come to terms with.
Exactly what I was thinking. Its not like AirTags are a first. There are others including inexpensive GPS trackers. But people love to blame Apple for stuff.
sounds about right. makes me think of that scene in "us" where she tries to call the police and alexa play f the policeYes, but when the thieves have to ask Siri to take them to their lair, all they will get is "I do not know what you mean by lair. Here's what I found on the web for lair."
"I do not know what you mean by hideout. Here's what I found on the web for hideout."
"I do not know what you mean by waterfront. Here's what I found on the web for waterfront."
"I do not know what you mean by abandoned warehouse. Here's what I found on the web for abandoned warehouse."
"I do not know what you mean by anywhere else. Here's what I found on the web for anywhere else."
"I can't do that Hal."
"Redrum. Redrum!"
Easily apprehended without actually moving the iCar one inch... probably babbling like the rooftop thieves at the beginning of Batman 89. Instead of mumbling "bat" as they are taken away, they will mumble "Siri"
but that would require more people to be running the tile app on their phone for it to be tracked. Not going to happen, Apple is the dominant smart phone that I see here in the Greater Toronto Area, and the area that these thieves target happen to be high end areas. The majority of people use iPhones, only seems to be Nerds/tech people that tend to buy the high end Androids.. the Average Joe/Jane, if had a choice to buy a iPhone vs Android phone will pick Apple, because, you know "Apple" .
minus those other trackers that will work as well cost a lot more money and have a lot more things that can be traced. Plus they tend to be a bit larger as they need a larger battery and connect to the cell network. All things that great increase cost and increase the ability to trace back to who doing it. Apple tags are just making it cheaper and easier.
These tend to be more organized crime or saying there is an order out to steal an a specific car. It is really easy to go to a sporting event and walk the parking lot looking for a targeted car put a app tracker on it then go steal it from the persons home where it will be easier.
That’s too much man. Don’t want to kill the guy. His head may explode while trying to figure it out.
Apple Car with imbedded AirTag probably will not solve the issue.

Look at the post #120, just 1 down after yours
But for good other reasons "following you" takes longer than a day. All a thief would have to do is covertly remove it from the car in the driveway the next day once they have identified where the owner parks overnight. They could come back any time after that for a good opportunity to get the car itself.
"You're driving it wrong."
