tl;dr from the article:
- Auracast is a feature of the Bluetooth LE Audio standard that enables broadcasting audio to nearby devices.
- Android added basic support for Bluetooth LE Audio in Android 13, including support for starting and connecting to audio streams.
- Android 15 could get a dedicated page for audio sharing, signaling that Auracast could be a key feature of the new OS.
Screenshots from the article of how the feature would look like:
I keep seeing "share nearby" in Android 13 share screens and it creeps me out. I've been wondering if there is a way to disable it. I still use wired earbuds and made sure to buy a phone that supports them.
The number one feature I want disabled elis that fuckin log in with Google on every page that loads these days
I once found a ublock filter for that, but only for one specific site. I'll see if I can get it to work for any site
Add "accounts.google.com/gsi/$3p" to the My filters page in uBO, it should block that nonsense on every page.
