. The proposed class action lawsuit was filed in federal court in San Francisco on Monday on behalf of one woman from Texas and another in New York. They are seeking unspecified monetary damages. One of the women said her ex-boyfriend allegedly placed an AirTag – a small tracking device, slightly larger than a quarter and intended to help locate lost items – into the wheel well of a tire on her car.
But soon after its launch, some experts warned that the devices could be used to track individuals without their consent. This isn’t the first time AirTags have allegedly been used for unwanted tracking. In June, a woman from Indiana allegedly used one to track and ultimately murder her boyfriend over an alleged affair, according to reports. They’ve also allegedly been used to steal cars. Earlier this year, Apple added more safeguards to the AirTag to cut down on unwanted tracking.
It’s weird to me, to go after a corporation instead of the creeps who did it.
Not apples fault what people do with their products.
Isn't it on every phone on the network anyhow, that is what phone is all about now. And the data you send to the satellite through mobile communication network also gives you away to pinpoint by the right system to track it.
USA? What can you expect from a 'sue culture' country. 😅
Shouldn’t them, sue their exes
Frivolous lawsuit, apple is not responsible for the use of its devices when purchased. It’s like everyone laughing a class action against gun manufacturers because they don’t feel safe with all others carrying guns
Only in America 🤪
So what next. We sue knife manufacturers for their products not being used as intended when someone is stabbed? What we need is better stalking laws. Punish the people who do this.
Why don’t you sue manufacturers of guns which are used to kill people? Same concept!
Tinder might be sued for something
You people are funny. Did Apple tagged them or did their Exes?
Apple should also ban the Airtags and sue themselves as well for such safety oversight.
People doing the most to make that quick buck.
Ok, but maybe also check what’s in your purse? Anyway, there should be a way to check if any airtags are present around you at all within a 30ft radius
Any product can be abused and misused. Sounds like they just want a payday.
This isn’t 🍏 issue
Your phone alerts you if there is a tag that doesn’t belong to you following you. Update your phone!! People swear there phone is their life yet 98% of people don’t know shit about the
Not sure that’s apples fault . The device performed as designed and isn’t apples fault how it was used.
交个朋友
As they should
Pathetic… why not sue the car companies who manufactured the cars used by the stalkers.
Yeah Apple wins every time
Ted Bundy bought rope from Lowe's. He used that rope on his victims. We cannot rest until Lowes and the rope manufacturer are sued into the ground!
What if I dont have any phone and my car is tagged. Who will alert me then?
She should sue her parent for giving her birth against her will
What about the car he used to stalk you? Gonna sue them also?
We are not shocked i hope xzibit joins that suit
This is so stupid. If you have an iPhone it tells you if an air tag is near or following you. People just looking for a payout
I’m suing apple bc there products are so good I can’t stop using and buying them
Lawyers looking for a quick settlement.
Yeah, good luck with that.
Tell me you are cheating without telling me you are cheating.
I knew something like this was coming the day Apple introduced AppleTag
Apple Hater here... How the Frick is Apple responsible for someone using their devices for insidious reasons Personal Responsibility is absolutely irrelevant?
All the vehicles used by the robbers should get their manufacturers sued ? Very proud thinking method
Yes, because Apple definitely told those men to do these horrible things.
Another blame the item not the person scenario GTFO 🤡
Sue the ex boyfriends not Apple 💀
Good grief
They need to sue themselves for not using better judgment on choosing their partners.
Why not sue the the gun companies for killing people.
Not apples fault
Trolling for money
What has that do with Apple? How many people have sued NRA for the guns used to kill their loved ones or sues Car manufacturers for cars used to cause terrorisms.?
A boy is pushed to the ground from a third floor, I think, at a Mall and the parents sue the Mall... This lady sues Apple... Is it me, or these people are going after the wrong people?... 🙄😵💫
There are all kinds of devices for LOST things. Lol 😆
And that’s Apples fault because….?
That’s not Apples fault. Like it’s awful but no way you have a case here
The government uses apples iPhone to track me and my communications… can I join this law suit?
What the heck? How is it got to do anything with Apple? So if a stalker takes photos following someone all day, should Apple or Canon be sued for using iPhones/Canon Cameras to take photos by stalkers? 😅😅
Should be suing there exes for stalking it has nothing to do with apple that there boyfriends were stalking them .
Cheat hoes
Good grief. Does anyone take responsibility for their actions?

I'm suing Apple because my ex keeps calling on her iPhone.
They can't sue Apple since it's not their fault for their exes to use their products to track you both.
So it'd apple's fault It's like saying it's the gun companies fault foe someone shooting someone
Right! That is not the fault of Apple!
As IF there are not SEVERAL other ways/devices that could have done the same thing… secretly. 🤦♂️
They are spreading fake news about hijab through media outlets to distract from the fact that they are executing people in silence.These are the confirmed names of the protestors who are sentenced to death. media should cover this news. StopExecutionsInIran MahsaAmini
So why they don’t sue ex-partners?
Don’t think this is apples fault. Parent using a child’s backpack is Deceitful but seen by police and lawyers as a parent “just tracking their kid” in case of a mother stalking the father .. since she’s the mother she may have better luck as court doesn’t care about fathers
Brown_Vision good job no other companies have made gps tracking devices…
This is technology! Invent something that counters it. They should sue the entities that operate numerous satellites and millions of street cameras for recording people’s every move…everything has become a joke to make the lawyers rich.
guess the boyfriends decided the girlfriends were stuff. maybe they jelly cause they getting stuffed by someone other then them
it’s not the bullet or the gun - it’s the shooter.
Her ex is Tim Cook? Makes no sense at all…
By that argument and logic, every single gun making company should be sued!
Common sense would say go after your ex’s
Why is it Apple fault that these ladies dated creepy guys?
hoes got caught cheating. i don't like apple but is not their fault. learn how a product works before using it
