Apple AirTag and similar accessories, which ensure that valuables are not forgotten or lost items can be found, have begun to gain widespread use. In addition to good-faith use, there is also malicious use, and the biggest job here falls on the producers.Apple and Google collaboration
Apple and Google have prepared an industry standard to prevent unwanted tracking with such accessories. This standard includes certain rules and sends alert notifications to iOS and Android devices when an unwanted tracking event occurs.
In the development of the standard, feedback will be received from device manufacturers and different non-governmental organizations will be involved in the process. Documents have been submitted to the IETF – Internet Task Force consortium and approval is expected within 3 months. Afterwards, Apple and Google will complete and publish the relevant rules. In the same period, updates will be sent to the iOS and Android versions. Other manufacturers such as Samsung and Tile are also expected to support this standard.
