Google & Apple want to alert you if someone is tracking you

Google and Apple are working together to warn users when they’re being tracked by a third party. The companies have unveiled a cross-platform alert system to fight against stalkers and others who might use Apple’s Bluetooth location tracker to know where people are or when they are not home. The companies say a software update is coming soon that will alert users with a message that a tracker is moving with them. Apple’s is on iOS17.5 and it will be on Android 6.0 or higher.
