Bluetooth 6 could make Apple's UWB chip redundant.

      I can see multiple uses for the tech. Unfortunately, many are a but dystopian, but some are legitimately useful.

        This is going to be tracking customers location in supermarkets.

          Of course not, that would be immoral. They’ll track trollies and baskets, then tag it to the till and your loyalty card. It would be a lot more consistent, and harder to dodge.
