AirTag Used by Federal Agents to Bust Illegal Narcotics Manufacturer
Border agents in May 2022 intercepted two packages from China, which included a pill press and pill dyes. They suspected the equipment was headed to a drug dealer and notified the DEA. The DEA opted to stick an AirTag inside the package to track its movements, which appears to be the first time an AirTag has been used in such a way.
The search warrant does not provide details on why the DEA opted to use an AirTag over another kind of GPS-based tracking device, but it mentioned that the “precise location information” would let investigators “obtain evidence about where such individuals store drugs and/or drug proceeds, where they obtain controlled substances, and where else they distribute them.”
A retired detective that spoke to Forbes speculated that the DEA may have used an AirTag because it offers more reliable connectivity than other devices, or because of past failures of the GPS devices available to police.
AirTags have built-in anti-tracking functions that may not make them suitable for use for this kind of tracking. They are designed to play a sound when away from an owner for a short period of time, and can also be located using the Find My app on iPhone or the Tracker Detect app for Android.
The recipient of the package was ultimately not charged in federal court, but he did end up being charged by the state of Massachusetts where the package was delivered.

Valorant Season 6 Cinematic Teases New Map As Agents Seek To Find An Overgrown Temple
The latest cinematic trailer for Valorant sets the stage for episode 6 by teasing a new map. The cinematic crosscuts between various Valorant characters as they make their way to a ruined temple, overgrown with giant flowers.
The trailer starts with Astra and new hero Harbor exploring a jungle in India, before cutting to a nightclub in Istanbul. Here, Fade uses her nightmare powers to interrogate men in suits. At the Valorant HQ, Omen tends to a Bonsai tree while Sage starts up a practice round against robots. Meanwhile, in Korea, Killjoy, Raze, and Jett hang out at a restaurant.
The trailer continues to cut between these various locations, showing Fade obtaining the location of a secret temple, Astra and Harbor using their powers to activate a strange, massive door, and Sage getting over her head at practice. Eventually, Omen uses his ability Dark Cover to shroud the practice arena in shadow, adding Sage as she completes the training. Fade relays the temple’s location to each of the other Valorant members shown, except Astra and Harbor who wake up underwater.
