I saw this on infinity for Reddit earlier, I don’t know if there’s a workaround for this or not.

It appears to require a Google account to do the tracking. So yeah, without Google services, you should be perfectly safe. Since you have no Google account registered on device and no services that run rogue in the background,
If the Bluetooth module itself is still running, it will be trackable
The article did not say specifically how it was getting added to Android 15, because if it’s in AOSP, then yeah, there’s definitely a problem. But if it’s in Google Play Services, which seems likely, then it would not be as big of an issue.
If it works anything like Apple’s Find My (which it appears to do) then no you won’t be trackable.
I don’t care. I want to be able to disable Bluetooth completely. If Android (even AOSP) doesn’t let me, it’s dead for me
You still can.
I’m just pointing out that your paranoia is out of ignorance, instead of a sound understanding of the technology.
