”Amazon is not the first company to look to create such a network. Apple has taken a similar approach with the company’s range of AirTag item trackers, which can connect to the internet through any compatible iPhone they come into contact with, not simply their owner’s.”

Wait. What?

Sending a unique code BlueTooth sign from the AirPods saying “Here I am” is not the same as acting as a WIFI hotspot for every Tom, Dick, and Harry who comes around and wants to hack into your home WIFI. The AirPods are not creating a network.
