I've been doing everything in computers for 25+ years and have worked in SCI Government NOCs, including the network stack for every OS. Your text is so wierd, I think maybe you didn't watch the IETF video did you? The networking isn't between AirTags, where did you get that? So wierd The phones use Bluetooth Networking to connect to Bluetooth tracking devices.
So, when the phone senses a tracker and tries to get it's status, whom it's tracking, etc, via the new protocol, you are saying it doesn't use Bluetooth networking? And that if it does, it stays on the phone and does't proliferate to other devices using Network Protocols?
I'm sorry, but please watch the whole presentation.
So in this Verge article where it says Apple and Android have integrated it into the "Find My Devices" networks for both platforms, it is somehow not using a network?
If I were you, I would not start social media posts with your job experience if you didn't read or watch any instructional material before you post, just to value your own career.
I mean, that's why I posted it, to hack the technicals details, take nothing for granted, and not assume anything.
