The two camera ops seeing each other and having to keep their mouths shut... priceless and YIKES that must have been hard. I'm seconding another's idea of them doing this again but they're both tagged and having to find each other AND complete tasks. Maybe more tasks that include interacting with other humans that might be able to rat you out... like, "Ask a barista they're favorite drink to make, get a selfie, and leave a nice tip" or "visit a dog park and get a selfie with a doggo"... definitely love the "change an article of clothing" one because that also involves interacting with a human who might rat you out. This is seriously fun to watch and Arun is REALLY good at this. I think Tom's adrenaline gets pumping so much, his logic side sort of short circuits. I think with more practice, he'll do better.

The selfies would be really interesting if they had to send them to each other, too. If you know roughly which direction the other person is, and they just took a photo in a park, there'd be more immediate risk of being caught. The airtag alone helps get a general direction/area, but selfies for the tasks or selfies with the tasks would help pin down a specific area once they arrive.

“If anyone thinks airtags are good for real time tracking they’re wrong” The concerns people have over them aren’t that they could be used for real time, it’s that they could be used to find where someone lived/worked/frequented/spent a lot of time at. That’s where it gets scary, they’re obviously not perfectly accurate when someone’s racing around doing tasks but if for example Arun stood still for 45 minutes I’m sure you’d be able to find him easy enough.

Loading Ready Run did a vaguely similar contest in a way that seemed a bit fairer for the hunters called: chasing our friends with cars, or Carhunt. It worked because there was many targets on foot, two hunters who were able to use cars to travel much faster, and there wasnt lots of different goals sending the hunters mad with second guessing themselves. I could see a combination of the ideas from both videos creating a very exciting competition, but the airtags alone are too iffy for a real time chase. It felt like chance that Tom got even close. The final location was also a pub so Carhunt had that going for it too.

However, there was 50 minutes of real-time where he was not even close or going in the right direction. IIRC Arun was slightly better, but not by much.

I love this game of tag they've got going on. But it always just felt a bit off whenever they'd remark how difficult live-tracking someone with an AirTag is. I mean, its mostly true, especially if they only have an hour as they've shown. But I always expect Tom to contextualize that with how stalkers could use them to track stationary positions much easier over time (work, home, coffeeshop). It just feels a little too close to downplaying people's fears about stalkers using AirTags. Which has happened a bunch. Enough that you'd think there'd be a mention of it, when the framing is so similar, multiple times a video even. I still enjoy what is essentially grown-up tag though.

Apple has already thought of that. The tags are designed to alert you if they have been following you. It takes longer than an hour but it automatically triggers the alert if you reach a notable location you have stored in Maps such as your Home. Only issue is that it only applies to iPhone users.

It kinda shows the shortcomings of airtags in that, since they rely on other phones to update the location, they're far less effective in less densely populated regions. That's probably the biggest difference between this video in Nottingham and the last in London. It's also going to be impacted by the phones people use, for example if you live in a country where more people have android phones, you're less likely to get updates.

An entertaining episode, and one that raises awarenesss about how can track you at the same time. Could you do one where Tom plays detective and learns as much as he can about some random person (who's on your team and gives consent, obviously), like their location, interests, their day to day movements, etc., from information that can be bought online? Could be an exciting episode and also good awareness-raising. Not sure exactly how to make it entertaining, though.

It would be interesting to see a 'rematch' but using an actual GPS tracker. These are generally more expensive than the airtags, and some either need a sim card or a subscription. But it would be cool to see if those have more precision. Those also have more scary potential because they don't alert your iphone that an airtag is nearby...
