Apple's AirTags

This blog is to discuss if AirTags really prevent thefts...









Misusage

So I read a lot of theories on how these tags are actually helping in the thefts. So if you are a thief and stealing a bike with an AirTag, you get a notification on your iPhone and then you can easily disable that. But, it's not so easy. The Tag does not notify you that an AirTag is with you until you reach a landmark. So that the owner knows you stopped at that landmark. Maybe your house, mall or a restaurant. Now there is one problem with this. If I have an AirTag and I plant it in your bag for example. So you won't know something with a GPS is with you giving your location and telling the landmark you are at. So people can track you and that is both scary and creepy.

Good or Bad?

Eh.. A bit of both. So, it's great if someone is trying to steal your stuff but, it's creepy when someone is stalking your movement. But, this is the first time Apple is doing this so it is not perfect but, I believe it is a step in the right direction.

So basically. AirTags are not meant to be anti-theft anyways. You are supposed to use these when you can't find your keys or a bag. So don't buy these if you are looking for security. Buy them if you usually lose things here and there.

17' Razer Blade Pro 2019

 Hey Guys, Welcome back to Interesting Intelligence! This laptop is SO much better than the previous blade pro. The thermals are crazy good. I would say that it is their best gaming laptop with awesome thermal performance. This laptop is brand new from this year, It is completely redesigned. It is their most expensive, most powerful and the most big-screened gaming laptop and it's a nice looking unit. I like this laptop a lot, however, there are some things which I want you to know if you're interested in picking this thing up! 1) Hardware The build of this device is very similar to the build of the 15' this year. It's got the same kind of design, shape, the light-up snake logo up front. It is very much an updated Razer product. I highly recommend you for getting a case or skin it if you buy a black one because even with very safe handling this device sometimes has dents and they are very much visible on a black one.         This laptop is obviously big...

Macbook M1 2021: WOW!

 Apple's M1 MacBooks are making the Windows laptop very hard to recommend now. They may feel the unusual choice but are looking like the right one. The WOW Part. Apple's M1 lineup is just being perfect right now. The hardware is so good that it makes it so difficult for us just to buy a laptop. If you look at their new base model. MacBook Air M1 for 999$. That fanless thing can be compared to any laptop in that price range, and it will probably win the comparison. 11 hours of battery. And the performance is even better; I would really like to know how they're doing it. The screen is also perfect. You cannot get a better screen for that price. Good resolution, 400 nits, and the colour accuracy is nice as well. But, it is not a fairy tale; there are problems. There is a limited port selection, no touch screen, and the bezels don't make it look like a very trendy laptop. But, the primary stuff is WOW. The hard part If you are already a MacBook user, you don't need to w...
