ElevationLab withdrew its $9.99 AirTag Silencer after criticism that the device could enable stalking by disabling AirTag speakers. The accessory, released on September 30, used a piercing mechanism to neutralize the tracker’s sound without damaging the hardware. Following a detailed review by Glenn Fleishman on Six Colors, ElevationLab issued a brief statement acknowledging the potential for misuse and announced the product’s removal from sale. The company also pledged to enforce its patent to prevent future replicas and noted the item is no longer listed on Amazon.
