Moto Tag officially goes on sale: It's basically a good Air Tag clone (www.androidauthority.com)

TL;DR

The Moto Tag is now on sale directly through Motorola.
Individual units will run you $29, while a four-pack is $99.
The new Moto Tag is backward compatible with Air Tag accessories and even supports UWB.

I want a open network that is privacy preserving

So the new google findmydevice network?

Not open or private

Have you read the posts and technical information about the new network? It's about as anonymous as you're going to get without a network of only like a dozen people.

It is a closed source product by a advertising company. Google already collects a huge amount of data so using Google services framework isn't private and it is all closed source so it isn't open. Let me know when it works on AOSP.

Should be private if it works the way they say it does.

Except you need the full GSF which isn't private
