A hacker broke into systems used by Tile, the tracking company, then stole a wealth of customer data and had access to internal company tools.

    Tile is a dying company. Pretty expensive trackers that are objectively worse that apple’s and samsungs offerings.

      Yeah. Imo their one hope was to make trackers that leverage both networks, as a sort of middle ground device for like a family with 1 android and 1 iPhone. Without that pivot they’ve seemed dead since the airtag launch.
