Don’t you have it backwards? It’s not the phones, its the trackers.
And the obvious reason is apple and google built it, so of course Tile is behind. If google already had trackers, that sentence would say AirTags and googleTags*
That is also likely a factor. There are more AirTags in the wild than Tiles.
That said, my point is that AirTags present more risk because they’re a better product. And they’re a better product because of the substantially bigger network.
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.
Tile is not as useful if you are trying to stalk someone because its network is much, much smaller. Therefore it is less dangerous than the Airtags.
