      Ok, well I’m not going to stop using my fitness band or Android auto because I’m a paranoid person. Might as well never leave your home and never use any devices connected to the internet.

          If you’re not implying that, then your reply was pointless.

              What was the point of your comment then if not a veiled suggestion to turn it off?

                This is an online discussion forum, the point of the comment was to educate the public about the downsides of having BT on at all times. I am not sure why @Polar got some butthurt about basic info sharing. If this info not relevant, move on… why spazz? People who care will act upon this info as they deem necessary.

                Also, conflating informational comment with a call for action is immature, at best.

                  I didn’t get butt hurt. I simply stated why I have Bluetooth on, and the devices I use require it, and knowing that information you told me it was a security concern.

                  Ok? And am I just supposed to sell my devices? Do you want me to turn my Bluetooth off so my device become useless? I don’t understand the point of your comment.

                  Hey guys, eating can cause you to choke, it’s a health concern. Better stop eating.
