> "Stalking" was possible 15+ years ago with $5 worth of sketchy hardware off

No, it was not possible 15 years ago with 5USD equipment. The airtags are not just using bluetooth for close range detection, but uses all apple devices in the world so its also locateable over long distances. While that could be build 15 years ago it would not be as cheap and as small.
