# LocateKit

> Independent GPS magazine publishing editorial guides on phone location tracking, theft recovery, family location sharing, Bluetooth trackers (AirTag, Tile, Chipolo, SmartTag2), unwanted-tracking detection, and the legal framework around digital surveillance. Also operates a free entertainment-only prank phone-locator (clearly labeled as fake). Multilingual original content in 10 languages with full market-specific localization (own currency, carriers, helplines, statutes in each locale — not mechanical translations).

Editorial principles: long-form journalism register (NYT Magazine / Stratechery / Numerama style, not corporate blog). Independent reviews. No fake "vs competitor" comparisons. Source-of-truth EN, then locale-native rewrites per market (US realia in EN, Brazilian realia in PT, Mexican in ES, Slovak in SK, Czech in CS, Thai in TH, Vietnamese in VI, German in DE, Hungarian in HU, French in FR).
