A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Nice, an actual standard that Google and Apple are agreeing to?

Exactly. When does that ever happen? Covid 19 contact tracing was the pretense to get this tech through the door. Literally government trackers in everyone’s pockets.

I don't think so? There's "Find My" network from Apple and there's this one from Google. The only intercompatibility planned is the alerts for unknown trackers following you.
