They've only been on preorder for half a year...
Has Apple addressed the security issues that Google was holding out for before they released their tracking network?
No idea, but it sure seems like something you'd want handled before you announce and put a physical product up for preorder.
The issue around people being notified that an unknown tracker is following them to stop people stalking. This is for Google's and Apple's AirTags. Apple has not yet implemented this into their own devices. It's not a Google problem, it's Apple.
Google doesn't have any trackers. You can't own them yet.
