In a previous job we got to build this cool little demo where we built this little device (with ultrasonic distance sensors attached to Raspberry Pis) that measured how full dumpsters were and sent that data to our company's IOT service, which then forwarded it on to our fleet management software to be able to do live route updates for garbage trucks to make their trips as efficient as possible. It was a very fun project and it demo'd pretty well (being able to put a bunch of crumpled up paper in the demo trash cans we were using and seeing the virtual truck's route immediately change on the map looked really cool), but it never ended up generating any leads. That's probably why that whole department eventually got nuked.

I generally don't do forwarding addresses when I move. Anybody personal enough can just get a text. Anybody important enough (IRS) will find you. And in my particular case, it turns out this address was registered as a business, no poo poo, 35 years ago, and since I don't know the name of the business, I can't set a forwarding address when I move out anyways.

Yeah. If you folks ever want to get your ham license, make sure to spend $29 so you can put that down as your address. you'll get doxxed and (if pertinent) deadnamed via the FCC database search, so. They won't ever send you any mail or anything but

You can accomplish the same level of tracking using some AirPods, just at an order of magnitude greater cost. So eliminating AirTags wouldn't necessary eliminate the problem. Apple does seem to be trying very hard to crack down on this as much as possible. When I was on a long train ride last year, I ended up getting a warning on my phone that an AirTag that wasn't registered to me had been following my location (obviously from some other passenger on the same train). It even gave me the option to disable the AirTag. Even after I rejected the offer to disable it, I ended up getting the same warning three more times over the course of the 16 hour trip. My brother had some AirTags he kept in his gear bag (he's a wedding videographer), thinking they'd be helpful at recovering items in case of theft. Unfortunately, when his house did get broken into and his gear stolen, when he gave the items' current location to the police they just said that particular place (a motel outside of town) "wouldn't be amenable to law enforcement requests" and didn't do anything.

Probably my funnest use of them was using Find My to see when my keys moved when my car was in the shop for 10 days, to see when they actually started it. Really the only thing airtags got goin for em is the prevalence of timb phones everywhere. It's a very "See? Advertising Works  " park bench billboard thing.
