Abstract

The rapid advancements in Global Positioning Systems (GPS), like those employed in Apple AirTags, have prompted a critical need for stringent privacy restrictions in tracking technologies. This article delves into the potential ramifications of such innovations, specifically addressing their impact on the issues of domestic violence, human trafficking, and theft. As women are disproportionately at risk, and have historically been underserved by protective legislation, the awareness of a need for comprehensive public policies and heightened awareness to protect vulnerable individuals is lacking. This article poses an in-depth exploration of these concerns and proposes solutions to be thoroughly examined, offering a comprehensive understanding of the challenges catalysed by evolving tracking technologies and their implications for women’s societal safety and security.
