So according to Apple privacy is a
fundamental human, right and
Personally, I totally agree with them is
Something that you are born with and you do have a right to and is also one of their core values
So with this anticipation of the brand new Apple air tag tracker that's supposedly coming out next month
Are you giving up some of that privacy? Let's go ahead and talk about it
You had tags otherwise known as Apple tags have been back in the news recently and
Potentially are gonna be released next month at Apple special event
Now add tags are going to be low Bluetooth tracking devices as that connect to your phone via
bluetooth and if you happen to lose or
Misplace your things you can simply go into the app to make your Bluetooth tracker ring. It also works in Reverse
You can actually press a button on a Bluetooth tracker to find your misplaced phone now
The thing is as Bluetooth trackers do not have GPS
It's actually using the GPS module that's in your phone for that location
So if you happen to lose your tracker in the middle of nowhere, it's not going to report back the current location
it's only going to report the last-known connection point
The shape and design of the Apple air tag is still unknown
We should expect the air tags to be able to be placed on your keys
wallet purse book bags luggage cars
List goes on and on some people are going to use them on pets
But please please please do not use them on your outdoor pets thinking that's going to report back the location
That's just going to run away from people and you're not going to get the pet back fashion
So why am I saying this is a game-changing product is because the next leading Bluetooth tracker
Which is tile has only 15 to 20 million active users
and so what happens if you mark your item as lost only those 15 to 20 million active users can
potentially report back the location of your lost device
But when it comes to the brand new Apple air tag Apple has over 900
million iPhone users out there plus all the IMAX MacBooks and other Bluetooth trackers all
Looking for your Apple air tag. So with so many active users
the Apple air tag has the potential being pinged and
potentially found a lot faster and in some locations in major cities
Almost in real time
With more and more hype around this game-changing products. How will Apple ensure your privacy?
What is stopping people from tracking you unknowingly?
Well, the federal government does have laws in place, but unfortunately, it's only about law enforcement
Tracking you without a warrant. There are no federal laws about citizens tracking other citizens. However,
certain states and jurisdictions do have regulations about so you should check your local laws and
regulations
Personally and simply I think there should be a federal law about people tracking other people without their permission
Of course you can attract your own car and other things that you personally own
Actually GPS trackers have been on the market for years
I personally reviewed a lot of GPS trackers on this channel
They're great for cars pets young kids and other personal assets
But anyone can buy them and slap them on your car or put them in your purse unknown
Ly so realistically these brand new Apple air tags are not producing any new opportunity to track you
It's our laws that we need in place that will have strict consequences for people who break the law
Don't get me wrong these brand new Apple air tags will open up a cheaper way the track things
Good GPS trackers out there on the market range from $50 all the way up to thousands of dollars
But all these GPS trackers require some type of cellular connection service
Which ranges about from $5 a month if you buy the purchase plan for the entire year or about?
$30 a month if you go month-to-month and when it comes to the Apple air tag, the price is still unknown
But it's going to be priced similar to other Bluetooth trackers on the market for example tiles runs from about 15 dollars
For one device all the way up to $30. The thing is is that there is no additional monthly cost
It connects to other people's cell phones and reports back the location of that connection back to the servers
Question to you, except for a couple dollars was the difference between someone placing a GPS tracker on you
Versus a Bluetooth tracker like the Apple air tag now I know privacy and security are going to be at the forefront of everyone's mind
one Apple releases the brand new Apple air tag
But in all honesty it is nothing new. These issues have been there all along
I mean, come on guys GPS trackers have been out for how long now
Let's not pin point the finger at Apple for bringing great technology to the forefront rather. Let's work on the real issue at hand
