This is a weird article.

Your phone is definitely tracking you, so why do you care about an air tag, which is literally a position tracking device.

If you carry a phone around, you are probably fine being tracked by your cell carrier and stuff. But being tracked by an AirTag means someone you know (family, "friend", etc.) is tracking you, which is a whole different concern.
