No, read the summary from the top comment.

Actually, very much yes. The device to be tracked needs to be exploited somehow in order to run the code to advertise its existence via BLE.

FTA's "Architecture of nRootTag":

Yeah - this is really really cool, but if you have code running on the target device, why relay its location via FindMy? If you are already talking to an external server to get pre-computed keys, there are easier ways to share location than FindMy… I guess if the target device doesn’t have GPS, FindMy does get you closer than other geolocation methods.

The patch for iOS is not to stopp the potential hijack via a Trojan software but to stopp the mesh of iOS devices to broadcast the find my messages around.
