    Faraday bags are a big deal nowadays.

    iPhone and Android both continue to broadcast BTLE and possibly mobile depending on model while off for hours for Find My features.

    While the BTLE beacons should be anonymous, very few things actually are to the right adversary.

    Also, many devices with wifi broadcast a list of saved networks whenever looking for a network to join, or did at one point anyway. Useful for people to know who might otherwise be using xfinitywifi or similar.
