<p>The Apple AirTag has been available for just over a week. Since then, we have seen a user rebuilding an AirTag as a thinner card that fits into wallets (https://9to5mac.com/2021/05/06/video-user-rebuilds-airtag-as-a-thinner-card-that-fits-into-wallets/) and also learned that it’s “frighteningly easy” to stalk using the item tracker. (https://9to5mac.com/2021/05/06/airtag-stalking/) Now, a security researcher was able to hack the accessory, modifying its NFC URL for Lost Mode.</p>
