I heard MKBHD said it only alert you alert you went home or workplace. Otherwise, it will keep alerting everyone on public transport.

On public transport, wouldn’t the alert not show up anyway because the AirTag’s linked iPhone is nearby as well?

It won't alert if the tag is moving with it's owner.

But if you forget your bag on the train, it would start alerting people on the train after a while.
