Only suspicious wives and mothers
[QUOTE=Holdrhem;5360729]So I was driving from my office downtown to Sharonville to have a dream and as soon as I got on the highway I turned the location services on my iPhone off as usual.
As I'm going thru the Lockland splits my wife calls and says "hey fix the location part of your "citizen" app so I can see if anything happens around where you are at. " I almost shit my pants. Got off at Glendale Milford and pulled into menards and then turned back on the location services. Did some shopping so I had a cover for being there. So fuck now I have to get a burner phone so I can leave my personal iPhone at work to make it look like I'm there. Crazy thing is I never remember giving permission to that app to track me. Must have had that feature automatically. So now I can't turn it off or the wife will ask what I'm hiding. Guys check all your apps to see if there is a location feature. I'm out of business until I get a burner.[/QUOTE]Would be trying to pull that shit. Make sure your prenup is current too. LOL.
Sounds like you have some poor boundaries with your lady. The burner is the easiest way forward for now, but long term I'd make online privacy rights another little hobby so you can convincingly argue why big brother tracking bullshit like that needs to be uninstalled.
Airtags: Three days is a long time.
[QUOTE=BengalMan;5362264]AirTag is designed to discourage unwanted tracking. If someone else's AirTag finds its way into your stuff, your iPhone will notice it's traveling with you and send you an alert. After a while, if you still haven't found it, the AirTag will start playing a sound to let you know it's there.
Of course, if you happen to be with a friend who has an AirTag, or on a train with a whole bunch of people with AirTag, don't worry. These alerts are triggered only when an AirTag is separated from its owner.[/QUOTE]You may not be in your car or near your backpack when it decides to chirp for 15 seconds. Plus Android users get no alert on the phone. Not the end of the world, just saying it's gotten much easier.

From the article:
[QUOTE==="WaPo"]I got multiple alerts: from the hidden AirTag and on my iPhone. But it wasnt hard to find ways an abusive partner could circumvent Apples systems. To name one: The audible alarm only rang after three days and then it turned out to be just 15 seconds of light chirping. And another: While an iPhone alerted me that an unknown AirTag was moving with me, similar warnings arent available for the roughly half of Americans who use Android phones.[/QUOTE]
