Google delays its upgraded Find My Device network until Apple can add safety alerts

Exactly. When does that ever happen? Covid 19 contact tracing was the pretense to get this tech through the door. Literally government trackers in everyone’s pockets.

I don't think so? There's "Find My" network from Apple and there's this one from Google. The only intercompatibility planned is the alerts for unknown trackers following you.

And thank god for that, because it helped me find my lost AirPods when I wasn’t quite sure where I left them out and about.

As if it's not already gathering all bluetooth devices in range already.
