I went back to their posts in November for this

> One of my AirTags is inexplicably 1600 miles away in Texas. It's one of my floating ones that I throw into bags when traveling as needed.

> Maybe it dropped out of my bag only to be found by someone who thought it'd be fun to confuse the owner. Or maybe it became e-waste to be dumped in another country.

The distance is more than the circumference of the Earth. If you wrapped a rope around the planet at the equator, the length would be around 25k miles.

Some roads aren’t perfectly straight (not that this seems like it could explain what happened in this particular case).

That's fair, but even the commonly cited longest route [0] you could theoretically walk without intentional detours, Cape Town, South Africa to Magadan, Russia, is approximately 14k miles.

Sure. However, if the road around the planet goes to Everest and back, the total length of travel will exceed the circumference of the planet.

Seems like the author of the linked post has a lost airtag located in the abyss.

It’s sitting next to Apple’s values.
