So you're restating the claim the article made with supposing it's because it's bigger and just being done first. But there's still technically has the capability of tracking others. And I wouldn't say being the product of choice of stalkers necessarily makes it a better product.
Edit: it's also odd that you went out of the way to extol the product when you're just agreeing with the conclusion I made as well. We get it. You love Apple.
Not fanboying, just saying why they are the biggest security threat, and therefore the right tracker to prioritize. That’s all.
When Google inevitably rolls out a competing tracker and client platform, they will have the dominant network after a few years. Apple will have to follow Google’s lead and build defensive tools for trackers on Google’s massive platform.
I mean, you went out of your way in multiple comments to not just say "Apple has a larger network so is more dangerous." In fact you didn't even say that. You had to let other people infer it from you repeatedly saying how great AirTags are and how superior they are.
Like, you're not wrong that it's a larger network. But you could have just said that. You're obviously a fan of Apple and preaching just a bit here.
But they are when the question didn't ask what's better.
Are you kidding? It was fucking quoted. Did you even read the goddamn thread? They were answering a "why" it was only airtags. Ffs. Going out of your way to defend someone who interjected how great apple is for no reason. Can only wonder why you would defend it....
Yes, I'm referring to the start of the discussion, the part where if you want to claim any context, you need to be aware of.
And two, popular and best aren't synonyms. In fact, pointing out how much better it is doest not answer the question. It answers why it's most common. Being the most common is the answer.
But sure. Keep being a try hard.
The guy spammed a few threads talking about how great AirTags are and gave no context. Beyond that, that isn't what his comment said. It didn't even claim they were the most popular. You had to infer that on your own. I'm confused why you're confused. Probably because you joined a conversation, made a dumbass accusation that no question was asked, and are now backpedaling to still look like anything you say makes sense.
This isn't fruitful anymore. Enjoy defending people talking about how great Apple is unsolicited.
That whole end bit was added later. This isn't rocket science. You'd know that since multiple people replied due to the unclear nature of the comment, including mine.
Jfc. I don't know why I'm even bothering with you. Are you like their little brother or something? Ffs.
Ugh. I'm sorry. I apologize. I don't argue with children.
I don't see what's wrong about reflecting on the context that makes AirTags the bigger stalking threat.
