Hey everyone! I'm making a thing again, and I'd love if some knowledgeable people threw in some submissions in the form of resources, stories, suggestions, or questions!

It's a project about tech-enabled abuse.

*I'm just starting the discovery phase and figuring out what I want to cover now, so the repo link below only has some info-dump stuff in it so far.

@alice don't have much to add unfortunately but I did want to mention AirDroid which is an app that alerts you when a Bluetooth tracker is following you. It works with multiple vendors and as opposed to Apple's tracker detect, it can also scan in the background so it's set and forget. Maybe it's helpful.

@alice yeah if you're in the city you will find them around you all the time. What should raise concern is if one follows you around.

@alice yeah in my experience the 10m figure for bluetooth is quite conservative. I can regularly see my own air tag that is on my bike 7 stories below me. Quite remarkable when you think about it!
