I learned about this from an old book, called "No Place to Hide" (2006) about how shopping malls have these chokepoints, that have Bluetooth and other data sensors to collect EMIDs etc. today I think it's even worse. Data from mobile devices are being pinned and harvested constantly.
Maybe one day, Apple? will allow us to see and block pinging signals attempting to harvest data.
