In that case you wouldn’t opt-in to beacon notifications.

But there are many people with varying use-cases - some of whome want reliable BLE detections on their devices. And if they opt-in to these notifications, then it’s a shitty experience when it doesn’t actually work as intended.

Never have, got 'location related alerts' a few times before I figured out how to switch them all off, without ever having opted in.

To be fair I have no idea if these were BLE related, but they were annoying.
