I still find it weird how Apple entering a mature product category with what are by all accounts best-in-class protections against misuse gets this sort of reaction https://t.co/cvhS8rGwlO

If you look beyond the usual attention grabbing headline, this is another interesting example of the need to address the ethics of Geospatial tools - To be clear I think @apple are doing the right thing here.. https://t.co/Dp8qYXloPm

AirTags are a snapshot of when Apple gets it wrong. They are particularly worrisome for people who aren't in the Apple ecosystem (a.k.a. most people). They go beyond the shame of an iMessage green bubble and put vulnerable people at a lot of risk https://t.co/HPh1EjQNHX

What I'm saying is not new. It's already obvious to much of the design community, and echoes years of realizations in the space. Which is why it's so hard to watch Apple launch a product like this, in 2021, that halfway addresses the very issues it invents

"Good design" is not something that works for one ecosystem or demographic. We need to judge products on their impact on society at whole. We need to consider edge cases. We shouldn't build things that make life a marginally better for some people but way worse for others.

Last thing: @nnedv dismantled this product over the course of a 20-minute conversation. That's all it took. They were both cordial and empathetic when pointing out Apple's errors. But how long was this product in development? Years?

I spent some time testing AirTags, and while they work exactly as promised, the thing that makes them so good could have some pretty terrible consequences: https://t.co/E5hQqlmnV2 pic.twitter.com/Zff8uO8cAu
