SignalTrace “links devices that regularly travel together, correlating them to license plate.” It is a surveillance product that will sweep up and add all sorts of Bluetooth and other data to license plate readers, linking specific devices—and people—to cars.
Does it also disable BT low energy?
BLE would fall under BT, so I would think so. Airplane mode would disable all radios.

Does it work on it too?
OK, waaay late to a better response.
If you’re on Android or an alt OS, you can go into developer options > Bluetooth LE Audio Mode it’s defaulted to “Unicast and Broadcast” but I’ve disabled it.
Maybe that’ll help someone!
But can you do it for wearables?
Most wearables I do not believe BLE can be disabled without powering off the device. It’s made me conflicted inside bc I just bought A Nothing Watch 3 and use GadgetBridge, but not if its radio signature is (eventually) going to be used for bad… I can see flock implementing this.
