Why are there such idiotic smart TVs that can’t even turn off bluetooth?!

There are at least two such devices in my apartment block and my bluetooth audio transmitter always tries to connect to them instead of my headphones. I have already talked to the people owning those TVs and we tried to disable BT, but it just isn’t possible. This is driving me insane!

    It means that the Bluetooth data the TV collects does not get transmitted anywhere. It’s better than disabling Bluetooth.

      Other than the whole issue of it still trying to connect to devices, or allowing other devices to try to connect to it. Which is what the post is about.
