The Bluetooth chipset installed in popular models from major manufacturers is vulnerable. Hackers could use it to initiate calls and eavesdrop on devices.

    My old FM BT transmitter that let me connect to my car had a surprising range, bout about a 100ft in every direction which as I understand it they aren’t supposed to be that strong. (Scosche brand from Best Buy)

    Used to tune it to the popular country station and jam everyone around me from listening to that station, which made me happy. Couple times when there was a particularly loud or obnoxious driver…I definately didn’t blast porn hub with my stereo off in my car…

    Tangent.

    One of my last concerts I went to was Meshuggah

    Had a great time.
