The barrier of entrance has not only been lowered on the cost side but also on the opportunity side. If people already own AirTags and know how to use them for legitimate purposes they just have to hide them somewhere to track somebody opposed to deciding to get a proper GPS tracker „just to find out where X is going to“.

The risk of getting caught has also been raised considerably, however. An anonymous GPS tracker won't easily lead back to you personally, but an AirTag used for stalking will lead police to your door.
