Seems the only way to prevent this is by running a firewall, but you can't run a firewall for Bluetooth connections… Yet.

What headphone jacks?

I know adapters exist, but they were talking about how no mid-high end phone has a headphone jack anymore

Idk, buy better phones. There was a couple Pixels that didn't have headphone jacks before the manufacturer realized it was a horrible decision and now. Other than those shitty models, all Pixels have headphone jacks

The last Pixel to have a headphone jack was the 5A released in 2021. The 6, 6A, 7, 7A, and 8 do not have headphone jacks.

Wut. They got rid of them, people complained, they added them back, and then they got rid of them again??
