    I commend Apple for selling this product for such a low cost to prevent thieves from stealing it. If this were expensive item air tax would be stolen daily but considering they only cost $30 there a slim chance that you’ll have your stolen so kudos to Apple for that. They were definitely thinking things through when creating this. I recently wrote in a lift and apparently left my keys in there and it kept showing that my keys were in a parking lot but when I got to that parking lot I realized it was an Apple store so some kind person took my keys to an Apple Store so I was able to go to that Apple Store and retrieve my keys thank goodness! Thank God for Apple AirTag!!! Best purchase I’ve made in a long time. Actually that’s a lie, I didn’t buy it, my 20-year-old daughter bought it for me because I lose my keys about 10 times a week. And had she not bought this for me about two months ago I probably would’ve never gotten my keys back there’s no way possible. Thanks Apple! 🍎

After two hours I finally found my house key. It had been thrown away in a bush. I can not believe, that I got at least my keys back. I bought my air tag on the last "Black Friday" Best purchase ever! I am so thankful for my air tag. Still a bit sad about another personal item which was stolen as well, but thank good not the iPhone!!!!!

      It’s great that you’re wanting to return that item to its owner. Check to see if the owner marked it as lost and left a message using the steps under “Get information about or disable an AirTag, Find My network accessory, or set of AirPods” here: s.apple.com/dm3l4d4i6v
      If not, we recommend handing it over to your local authorities. For additional questions or concerns, reach us here: apple.co/GetSupport

      Literally no one is going to see your photos, not even Apple, it is for criminals, if you aren’t one why are you worrying? unlike Google and many other services who just open up your whole library to the government to see, Apple will only get access to the reported CSAM images if you have some, not your whole library.
