Matthaus Woolard on Nostr: It worth remembering the `data` you provide with air tags is fully end to end ...
It worth remembering the `data` you provide with air tags is fully end to end encrypted. It does not enable apple (or anyone else) to know the location of the device or the location of the devices that observe it.
This cryptographic lock is why apple did not get push back, while they have location data its not accessible to them only to the owner of the tracker who has the keys to decrypt it.
