As at least one Youtuber put it:
"Congratulations! You've made it to December, the final level of 2020!"
So, my Moto G phone got an "update" yesterday, and apparently one of the new "features," which has been in other Android phones for a while, is that the Bluetooth status bar icon now only appears when certain types of devices are connected. It no longer shows when Bluetooth is enabled, but not connected, as it always had.
Please tell me, fellow venters and ranters, that you see this for what it is, as I do: One more bit of control taken away from us in controlling devices that we supposedly own. One more step in taking away our freedom. One more decision that our "nannies" think we should leave in their hands, and not worry our pretty little heads over. One more step in training consumers to believe that they are indeed only consumers and nothing more, helpless sheep that should just eat what were fed by Apple and Google and Congress, and not get all uppity thinking that we should have a say in how our resources are used. Or more little step down the slippery slope.
