The image in the new version does depict bluetooth \u00a0trackers that can be \u00a0used to locate nearby lost objects such as keys or briefcases. However, these devices have a very limited range and would be completely impractical for following people home at a distance (see detailed analysis below for more information).<\/p>\n<div class=\"example\"><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><b>Example:<\/b><\/span><br \/>\nThis is a key chain given free at petrol stations Do not accept or just throw it away.
