2:41:34Goodnight Chat, goodnight Peeba
2:41:37MrTwister brother be careful and stay safe
2:41:41Airtags are passive. Also why they're less reliable, but there's no airplane issue.

2:41:44hot take, idk if needing to put phones in airplane mode is real

2:41:49Sky King was a baggage handler. He didn’t crash out for no reason. Just saying…
2:41:52I don't want the feds to know where my bags are.
2:42:02airplane mode is just to prevent communication with towers. that's not what trackers do anyway
2:42:08Trackers are fine, no need for an airplane mode on them
2:42:09it makes the pilot less nervous
2:42:12it's good to do to save battery, but doesn't seem to matter
2:42:12When most people say "Tracker" they mean GPS devices that report via cell network, not the same thing as an airtag
2:42:12its more for the phone battery
2:42:14If they have activated bluetooth they need to be removed from luggage. And passive tracking kinda sucks, so.
2:42:14they don't have an airplane mode, that's nonsense
2:42:15sky king was a trooper :saluting_face:
2:42:16technically not needed anymore
2:42:20my phone is never in airplane mode
