Publishing timestamp: 2023-05-01 10:29:21


Summary

New York City Mayor Eric Adams has called on residents to help fight vehicle theft in the city by placing Apple AirTags in their cars. AirTags are small tracking devices that allow users to monitor the location of their belongings through the "Find My" app on their iPhones. If a vehicle is stolen with an AirTag inside, residents will be able to track their car and work with police officers to recover it. Apple sells AirTags starting at $29, and a nonprofit organization in New York has donated 500 of the devices to distribute to residents for free. The New York City Police Department has shared a video demonstrating how residents can use AirTags to protect their vehicles. Mayor Adams believes that using technology to fight crime is the direction the administration and police department are going in.
