Many malls in Toronto have this. And as others have said, airports. Pearson International included.

Yes, it is turned on by default. You can opt-out if you’d like. Here’s a pretty good article that covers it all: https://www.howtogeek.com/725842/what-is-apples-find-my-network/

Samsung SmartTags “Find” network is opt-in, which stagnated the growth of their network.

Tile’s network is naturally opt-in as it requires us to install the app, and therefore has the lowest coverage from my understanding.

I recall seeing the following approximate numbers:

• Apple: 1,000,000,000
• Samsung: 300,000,000
• Tile: 35,000,000

Battery and data usage are negligible.

Possibly. I reinstalled Jerboa already. Is lemmy.ml still overloaded? I keep getting “network error” when doing certain things like posting or upvoting. Sometimes even from just scrolling.

Alone. Phone’s unplugged. Ignoring calls even though no one does.

Can still use the “Shift + F10 and type OOBE/BYPASSNRO” option. A non-online method is still necessary for corporate environments that use Microsoft Deployment Toolkit (MDT) or other tools to image computers in bulk.
