And I feel like many people being critical of us are arguing with emotions and not data. You have to scan a government ID and agree to severe penalties for misusing our product. We have had zero instances of reported stalking from anyone who has enabled the anti-theft feature.
Can you articulate with data why what we are doing is problematic?
Most of the people your products are being misused to stalk can't even turn off their location sharing because the person who's insisted they install the app/hardware will assume that doing so means they're off spending time with someone else, or whatever their personal paranoid fantasy is. Why would someone being subjected to that contact you? It would just enrage whoever is monitoring their movements when their account was suspended, or whatever your process is.
The people misusing your products in that way don't think they're doing anything wrong, so they're not going to hesitate to have you verify their ID.
Other than location history, is there a big difference between Life360 and builtin iPhone location sharing? To me, that's not enough to put the product in a different category.
Though some things in that space are marketed to stalkers, there are legitimate use cases for such technologies, and therefore the only LTE tracking devices I’ve seen in person were sold at reputable stores.
You were literally just sued for this https://news.bloomberglaw.com/privacy-and-data-security/tile...
Edit: Hey man I'm not engaging you on this, you chose to opt-out of this safety feature and you've enabled stalkers that target at risk groups like me. Nope.
