    Ya I don’t like the idea either. But what really grinds my gears is that misleading headline that makes it sounds like they are doing it suddenly with no apparent reasons.

      I prefer neutral headlines that don’t promote what is likely to be a lie without the context of the article.

      They say it is for finding lost phones, but I don’t really believe that is the actual reason. They are probably doing some kind of tracking that uses bluetooth and too many people are turning it off for their preferences.

        Let the reader be the judge. You can be neutral without hiding information. How about “Android 15 can turn Bluetooth on automatically and Google says it’s for finding lost devices”?

          and Google says

          That would be acceptable, but headlines are rarely written that way because of the added length.
