Fast Pair: Google’s tech to woo Bluetooth device makers
Google is inviting Bluetooth device makers to adopt Fast Pair for easier pairing with Android.
A flaw in the Bluetooth communication protocol may expose modern device users to tracking and could leak their ID, researchers claim.
The vulnerability can be used to spy on users despite native OS protections that are in place and impacts Bluetooth devices on Windows 10, iOS, and macOS machines. This includes iPhones, iPads, Apple Watch models, MacBooks, and Microsoft tablets & laptops.
