You personally may not have to worry about it, but a handful of well publicized cases of misuse (say someone getting stalked/murdered) will probably be a bigger monetary hit to Apple than their profit from this entire line.
We should also stop producing cars because someone may crash someone.
Almost every technological device (or even a simple device) can be abused in wrong hands, nothing to do with Apple or AirTags.
i don't think the jury is out on airtags just yet. it's clearly revolutionary technology in terms of reach, for better or worse.
>I continue to think Apple should have never released AirTags to the public, and should discontinue it
This discussion is specifically about what Apple should do, so I don't see how this is relevant.
